HMS Networks
Cybersecurity for industrial networks
With 'Anybus Defender', HMS Networks presents a new product range for the highest cyber security requirements in industrial environments. The new product range offers protection for networks in the manufacturing industry and for the critical infrastructure sector, among others.
The 'Anybus Defender' product range offers a firewall for the protection of OT (Operational Technology) networks. The main use cases are network segmentation according to ISA/IEC 62443-3-3, network address translation with traffic filtering and deep packet inspection (DPI) for industrial protocols. The product range is suitable for machine builders who want to integrate cyber security into their machines, as well as for plant operators in the manufacturing and critical infrastructure sectors who want to better arm their networks against potential security threats.
The Anybus Defender range comprises four different models:
- The 'Anybus Defender Compact 1004' is a space-saving solution for integration into smaller machines or for smaller industrial environments, providing robust protection.
- The 'Anybus Defender 4002' is a versatile firewall for integration into larger machines or for medium-sized networks, combining state-of-the-art security functions with simple deployment.
- The 'Anybus Defender 6004' model is for larger installations and offers advanced security features and comprehensive network protection.
- The 'Anybus Defender 6024' is designed for the most demanding industrial applications and offers comprehensive security and network coverage.
Anybus Defenders are ideal for physical segmentation strategies and are available with various port configurations from RJ45 Ethernet to SFP ports with copper or fiber connections. Anybus Defender 4002, 6004 and 6024 are available with three different licenses for different security use cases.
