At the same time, the network security function of the HIMax controller has also been awarded Achilles Level 1 certification by Canadian industrial security expert Wurldtech.
HIMA’s security solution that integrates functional security and network security was designed to be independent of the process control system at the beginning. This relative independence can reduce information interaction with the outside world, thereby strengthening the safety protection of the factory.
In HIMA’s self-developed security controller, all security related applications run under a dedicated operating system, protecting them from conventional attacks against general IT systems.
After testing, the operating system of the controller can resist network attacks during software development.
In addition, the HIMA controller is equipped with independent control and communication microprocessors, enabling them to be relatively independent, ensuring that the device can still ensure the normal operation of the control network and the device in case of external communication attacks.
In addition, the controller also has the function of prohibiting unauthorized access to the automation network from the programming environment and disabling unused Ethernet ports.
T Å V Rhein and HIMA have had decades of successful cooperation: In 1970, HIMA, a safety expert based in Breuer, became the world’s first company to obtain T Å V Rhein certification for safety controllers.
