Network (PN800). The network-centric architecture allows

for integration of field devices, process and electrical system

areas, and business enterprise systems in a simple, scalable,

seamless and secure manner.

Protecting the integrity and confi dentiality of system data

The process and power industries face intensifying cyber

security risks. In order to increase stability, security

and robustness in its solutions, ABB has established an

independent Device Security Assurance Center (DSAC)

where cyber security robustness is tested as part of the

product development process. The DSAC test facility uses

state-of-the-art open source, commercial and proprietary

robustness and vulnerability analysis tools in its certification

testing. All Symphony Plus Ethernet-based devices –

including SD Series products such as the HPC800. and

CI850 – are continually tested at the DSAC center in different

configurations and with an explicit focus on operational

performance. This ensures that all Symphony Plus products

are robust, secure and of the highest quality.
