Siemens introduces Scalance S Ethernet security modules

西門子推出Scalance S以太網安全模塊

Atlanta, April 11, 2007 - Each year industrial plants lose tens of billions of dollars from network security breaches. These attacks are a result of anything from disgruntled employees, to high school hackers, to spies digging for sensitive data.

亞特蘭大4月11日消息——每年工廠因為網絡安全被破壞而遭受數以百億美元計的損失。這些攻擊可能來自對公司不滿的雇員，以及學校的電腦黑客、想挖掘敏感數據的間諜等。

A new technology is now available to protect the plant floor from data manipulation, espionage, unauthorized access, and automated intrusions. The Scalance S family of industrial Ethernet security modules from Siemens Energy & Automation, Inc. offers the functionality and protection of a firewall and virtual private network (VPN), allowing only real-time, authenticated communication between authorized devices within the automation network. A software security client is also offered to setup IPsec based VPN connection from a desktop or laptop.

現在一項新技術可以使工廠免受非法數據操作、間諜、非授權訪問以及非法自動入侵等造成的損失。西門子能源和自動化公司推出的Scalance S工業以太網安全模塊家族提供了一個防火墻以及虛擬個人網絡(VPN)功能和保護，實現在自動化網絡內的授權設備之間只能進行實時的、認可的通信。同時它還為臺式機或者手提安腦提供一個軟件安全客戶端，安裝基于IPsec的VPN連接功能。

Available for new and existing industrial networks, three models of Scalance S security modules offer varying levels of functionality to meet any automation cell security need. Easy to install, the modules isolate the automation network from the rest of the enterprise. Additionally, the settings may be saved on the C-PLUG (memory module) reducing maintenance cost.

為了適用于新的和現有的工業網絡，Scalance S安全模塊的三種型號具有不同的功能水平，滿足了任何自動化網絡的安全需要。這些模塊安裝容易，把自動化網絡與企業的其他網絡隔離開來。此外，設備可以保存在C-PLUG（存儲器模塊）上，減少了維護成本。

"Losses from poor plant network security will continue to be a primary concern for plant engineers and front office executives," said Raj Rajani, Scalance product marketing manager. "The Scalance S security modules physically and electronically separate the automation cell from the enterprise, making automation network intrusions impossible."

Scalance產品營銷經理Raj Rajani表示：“因網絡安全性能較而差造成的損失仍將是工廠工程師以及全體決策管理者們的重點關注。Scalance S安全模塊在屋里層面和電子層面將自動化網絡與企業隔離起來，使自動化網絡入侵變得不可能。”

Three Modules for Every Application

三種型號，適用于每一種應用

The advanced Scalance S613 security module protects up to 64 devices and offers 127 VPN tunnels simultaneously. Designed to survive the harsh environments of the factory floor, this module offers an extended temperature range from -4 degrees to 158 degrees F (-20 degrees to 70 degrees C).

高端型Scalance S613安全模塊可以保護多達64個設備，可以同時提供127個VPN通道。本型號的設計可用于工廠里的惡劣環境，適應溫度范圍從零下4華氏度至158華氏度（零下20攝氏度至70攝氏度）

The standard Scalance S612 security module protects up to 32 devices in the internal network and offers up to 64 VPN tunnels simultaneously.

標準型Scalance S612安全模塊在內部網絡可以保護多達32個設備，以及可以同時提供64個VPN通道。

The basic Scalance S602 security module provides firewall protection that may be used as alternative VPN tunnels with flexible access control. In addition to bridge mode, the module may also be operated in router mode to connect separate IP subnets.

基本型Scalance S602安全模塊具有防火墻保護，可以作為代用VPN通道，具有靈活的訪問控制。除了橋接模式，該型號模塊還可以通過路由器模塊連接分離的IP子網絡。

"As production and office networks continue to merge, the risk of viruses and attacks at the plant floor will increase," Rajani said. "The Scalance S family of industrial Ethernet security modules provides the protection plants need when working with Ethernet technology at the automation level."

Rajani 表示：“隨著生產和辦公網絡的繼續增多，工廠受到病毒和攻擊的風險也將增大。Scalance S工業以太網安全模塊家族在自動化層面上與以太網技術配合的時候，提供了工廠所需要的保護。”
