Configure Your Devices Securely With Security Embedded Functions

Your substations are exposed to potential threats once they connect to networks. Thus, all networking nodes need to be protected from intruders. Based on IEC 62443 and NERC CIP guidelines, our MGate 5119 Series IEC 61850 gateways provide multiple security functions to ensure your device is secure in the initial configuration process.

  • Password-cracking defense: Using default passwords for convenience is not an option anymore. Our IEC 61850 gateways have a password policy that encourages you to use stronger passwords to avoid unwanted access.
  • Sniffer and data breaches protection: Using plain text for your device configuration can be dangerous. Our IEC 61850 gateways provide SSL/TLS to encrypt your critical data during configuration process.
  • Configuration file and program tampering resistance: When you export your configuration files for backup, our IEC 61850 gateways will encrypt the file to enhance file’s integrity.
  • DDoS defense with built-in detection capabilities of suspicious activities: DDoS attacks are usually carried out by occupying your network bandwidth or attacking the resources of your networking devices. Our IEC 61850 gateways help you detect abnormal packets and alert you for instant responds.
