Industrial Firewalls

No business or industry is safe from attack. Whether intentional or accidental, threats can come at the hands of internal personnel, external hackers or even your physical environment. Either way, an unprotected network puts your enterprise at risk. To counter these risks, the best practices of Defense in Depth and zones and conduits are needed, while ensuring that your device can operate in the harshest of environments. Belden’s security devices deliver the functionality needed to implement these best practices and ensure the safety, resiliency and reliability of your network.

Deploy a transparent network security device in front of critical assets, enabling vulnerability protection by virtual patching without changing logical network configuration.

Prevent vulnerability attacks, unauthorized accesses, and/or unintended control commands to critical assets from RTUs or IoT gateways.

With processes continuing to be digitalised and automated, operational technology (OT) networks are increasingly open and connected to the Internet, leading to a convergence of IT and OT infrastructures. As a result, companies that manage industrial systems face increased risks in terms of industrial cybersecurity: espionage, sabotage, data alteration, etc. And their attack surface is increasing, with a major risk: a total halt to their production.
