1 Cyber security disclaimer
Siemens provides a portfolio of products, solutions, systems and services that includes security functions
that support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks. In the field of Building
Technologies, this includes building automation and control, fire safety, security management as well as
physical security systems.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to
implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art security concept. Siemens’ portfolio
only forms one element of such a concept.
You are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to your plants, systems, machines and networks
which should only be connected to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a
connection is necessary and only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network
segmentation) are in place. Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be
taken into account. For additional information, please contact your Siemens sales representative or visit

security.html.
Siemens’ portfolio undergoes continuous development to make it more secure. Siemens strongly
recommends that updates are applied as soon as they are available and that the latest versions are used.
Use of versions that are no longer supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase your
exposure to cyber threats. Siemens strongly recommends to comply with security advisories on the latest
security threats, patches and other related measures, published, among others, under
