Web Site Security 2 At a Glance Purpose Before you set up your Web site, you should give some thought to security. While data in a default Web site is read-only, data in a custom site can be write-enabled. You should consider carefully who has access to the site and which data can be modified. This chapter discusses security concerns and some security mechanisms available to FactoryCast users. In This Chapter 890 USE 152 00 Version 2.0 This chapter contains the following topics: For This Topic...
Web Site Security Internal Security Overview The Web site you create with the FactoryCast Configurator may be accessed over an intranet. FactoryCast Configurator provides two mechanisms to ensure that only authorized users view and modify your data. Security Mechanisms On intranets, FactoryCast Configurator provides security through: l Password entry l Write restrictions CAUTION SECURITY SETTINGS MAY BE CHANGED Keep strict control of access to the FactoryCast Configurator software.
Web Site Security Internal Security, Continued Write Restrictions In order to write register values or save templates to your Web site with the Data Editor or Graphic Editor, a user must enter an additional password for write access. Users who enter the write password can only modify variables, (symbols) and direct addresses which are set as write-enabled. When you create a Web-enabled database of variables and direct addresses, you can designate each element as read-only or write-enabled.
Web Site Security External Security Overview If your network is configured to allow users to view your site over the Internet, you have the same security concerns as for an intranet, but you have an extra mechanism to deal with them: a firewall. Firewall Architecture A firewall is a gateway from the Internet to your Embedded Server, as depicted below. You can use a firewall to restrict or deny access to your Web site.
Web Site Security External Security, Continued Network-Level Firewalls Network-level firewalls are frequently installed between the Internet and a single point of entry to an internal, protected network. ApplicationLevel Firewalls An application-level firewall acts on behalf of an application; for instance, FTP. It intercepts all traffic destined for that application and decides whether to forward that traffic to the application. Application-level firewalls reside on individual host computers.
