1.  SECURITY DISCLAIMER

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
https://www.siemens.com/global/en/home/company/topic-areas/future-of-manufacturing/industrial-security.html.
Siemens’ portfolio undergoes continuous development to make them 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
http://www.siemens.com/cert/en/cert-security-advisories.htm
