Security information
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
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 industrial
security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components 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.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please
visit
Link: (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity)
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are
available and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no
longer supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customers’ exposure
to cyber threats.

Security recommendations
To prevent unauthorized access, observe the following security recommendations when
working with the optical readers and WBM (Web Based Management).
General
●Check regularly that the device complies with these recommendations and/or other
internal security policies.
●Evaluate your plant as a whole in terms of security. Use a cell protection concept with
suitable products.
●Do not connect the device directly to the Internet. Operate the device within a protected
network area.
Physical access
●Restrict physical access to the device to qualified personnel.
●Lock unused hardware ports on the device. Unused ports can be used to access the
system without authorization.
Software (security functions)
●Keep the software up to date. Keep yourself informed regularly about safety updates for
the product.
You can find information about this at Link: (http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity)
●Activate only protocols that you actually need to use the device.
●Limit access to the device using a firewall or rules in an access control list (ACL).
●The configuration files are available in XML format for simple use. Make sure that the
configuration files outside the device are suitably protected. You can, for example,
encrypt the files, store them at a safe location and transfer them only via secure
communications channels.
●We recommend that you disable the "CONNECT" function after initial commissioning.
●The functions for archiving as well as the remote functions (MMI) may only be activated in
networks protected by a firewall.

Operating Instructions, 05/2019, C79000-G8976-C494-02 7
Passwords
●Activate user management and create new user profiles.
●Change all default passwords for users before operating the device.
●Only use passwords with high password strength. Avoid weak passwords, e.g.
password1, 123456789, abcdefgh.
●Define rules for using devices and assigning passwords.
●Make sure that all passwords are protected and inaccessible to unauthorized personnel.
●Do not use the same password for different users and systems.
●Update passwords and keys regularly to improve security.
Firmware encryption
The firmware itself is signed and encrypted. This ensures that only authentic firmware can be
downloaded to the device.
Secure/non-secure protocols
●Check whether it is necessary to use SNMPv1. SNMPv1 is classified as non-secure.
Make use of the possibility to prevent write access. The product offers corresponding
settings for this.
●If SNMP is activated, change the community names. If unrestricted access is not
necessary, limit access via SNMP.
●Use secure protocols if access to the device is not protected by means of physical
safeguards.
The following protocols provide secure alternatives:
HTTP → HTTPS
●To prevent unauthorized access to the device or network, set up appropriate safeguards
against non-secure protocols.
●Enable only the services (protocols) that will actually be used on the device. The same
applies to the installed interfaces/ports. Unused ports could be used to access the
network downstream from the device.

Explanation of the table:
●Authentication
Specifies whether authentication of the communication partner takes place.
●Encryption
Specifies whether the transfer is encrypted.
NOTICE
Opening ports by changing the parameter settings
Make sure that port "TCP/8765" is open when enabling the "Archiving/MMI" parameter.
Make sure that the "TCP/8020" port is open when enabling the "TCP" parameter.
You can find additional information about these parameters in the section "Communication
> Interfaces" of the WBM online help.
