Siemens expands its portfolio of cybersecurity solutions and launches an all-in-one security test suite for industrial communication networks. Sinec Security Inspector is a software framework for active, one-time scanning that allows you to scan individual network devices, network segments, or the entire network infrastructure during maintenance windows. It brings together a set of security tools integrated into a single user interface.
“Siemens Siec Security Inspector brings a unique and enhanced testing solution to the manufacturing floor, allowing customers to check their entire IT/OT environment, including all individual components.” said Michael Metzler, Vice President of Security Horizontal Management. “Customers are able to discover risks and potential hazards quickly, putting them in a position to quickly mitigate cyber vulnerabilities. This significantly reduces the effort when inspecting industrial networks.” With a growing number of different machinery providers using a wide variety of vendors, manufacturers face several challenges when it comes to network security in their factories, including asset identification and discovery, compliance checks, malware scanning, and vulnerability checks. facing. Sinec Security Inspector helps you address all of this.
Sinec Security Inspector is designed as an open framework. It offers security tools developed by Siemens and also includes vulnerability management tools provided by cybersecurity companies. Tenable. Additionally, more internal and third-party testing tools will be added in the future to cover more test cases. “The importance of cybersecurity has increased significantly in recent years as industrial companies transform into digital companies,” says Metzler. “With this in mind, Siec Security Inspector was initially developed to scan in-house factories to detect network vulnerabilities. After years of testing and refinement, the tool has been developed across industries and It’s now perfect for protecting manufacturing environments.”
