Job Description

Job OverviewIn the past, industrial networks where based on proprietary protocols and software, managed and monitored by humans with no connection to the outside world. This created a secure network which hackers were unable to interface and attack with nothing to gain or destroy. In addition, OT and IT were not integrated and did not deal with the same kinds of vulnerabilities. Today, it's a very different story as we see more industrial systems brought online to deliver big data and smart analytics as well as adopt new capabilities and efficiencies through technological integrations. IT-OT convergence gives organizations a single view of industrial systems together with process management solutions that ensure accurate information is delivered to people, machines, switches, sensors and devices at the right time and in the best format. When IT and OT systems work in harmony, new efficiencies are discovered, systems can be remotely monitored and managed and organizations can realize the same security benefits that are used on administrative IT systems.This transition from closed to open systems has generated a slew of new security risks that need to be addressed.Siemens Industrial Communication deliver operational hardware and software technology enabling our client to have a single view to monitor and control their physical hardware. Industrial communication devices DCS / SCADA systems or electrical systems are intelligently protected by our specially engineered solutions through utilization of Siemens aggregate level integrated security interface.
