Built-in operational cyber security features
With connected and online controllers, operational security is critical.
The Linux system in the AMC 300 provides cutting-edge security features.
For example, boot and firmware updates can only be carried out with
signed update packages. By default, there is only one user (admin)
account on the AMC 300. Still, you can create and manage multiple users
and access rights to ensure that the necessary users can handle the unit
while protecting the AMC 300 from unauthorised access.
CODESYS web visualisation is managed through certificate handling
via the system web page. Authentication keys are added via system web
configuration, and the AMC 300 builds on standard secure file transfer
and access protocols like SSH and SCP. Finally, the Linux system is less
vulnerable to ordinary computer virus attacks than Windows-based PLCs.
