Communication Drivers
Rockwell Software also sells communication drivers from KEPware.
KEPServer Enterprise software, a set of communication drivers, which enable
OPC connectivity to many third-party devices. Use KEPServer Enterprise
software with FactoryTalk View SE software on Windows XP and Windows
2000 systems. KEPServer Enterprise software is catalog number 9301-
OPCSRVENE.
The following drivers are available with KEPServer Enterprise software.
Additional KEPServer OPC drivers, such as DNP3, are available directly from
Kepware Technologies.
Securing the Telemetry
Network
Whenever the telemetry network incorporates links over public networks,
consideration must be given to securing the data in the link so that it can't be
interpreted, altered or spoofed. An effective way of securing Ethernet data that
travels over public networks is to use Virtual Private Network (VPN) technology.
VPNs encrypt the Ethernet data before it is transmitted and only the intended
receiver knows how to decrypt it. Encompass Partners Secure Crossing and
Spectrum Controls supply industrialized VPN devices.
These are some of the tools for securing your SCADA and control system. See
page 18
for more information.
