Emerson upgrades cybersecurity offerings.
Emerson Process Management joins forces with Intel Security, part of Intel, to enhance and strengthen its integrated cybersecurity solution to better secure the DeltaV distributed control system (DCS). The increased layer of cyber protection is designed to help safeguard critical assets and data. The DeltaV DCS incorporates built-for-purpose control system firewalls and network switches that provide security and protection features to help system networks remain available, reliable and more secure, according to the company.“Through our global network of experts, we follow ‘defense in depth’ layered security practices designed to both comply with emerging cybersecurity standards and combat new, emerging and complex threats,” says Sean Sims, vice president of Emerson’s Lifecycle Services.
The new solutions reportedly provide efficient compliance measures and instant intelligence for changing threat environments, along with real-time visibility and centralized management through a single platform.
Emerson is certifying supported releases of the DeltaV DCS and AMS Suite asset management to offer Intel Security’s anti-virus, network monitoring and application whitelisting solutions. Additionally, Emerson will offer Intel Security’s security information and event management (SIEM) solution to perform monitoring and the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator for streamlined and centralized security management.
