Secure remote access is critical to mitigating cyber threats and ensuring operational and business continuity in OT environments. Traditional solutions, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and Remote Desktop (RDP/RDS) alone may not provide enough mitigation of cybersecurity risks when used for remote engineering and operational control of ICS/OT. Industrial operators and system managers need to be able to manage equipment securely without exposing the entire organization to cyberattacks.
With MSS Secure Remote Access, companies can:
For employees that are not able to access the workplace due to travel restrictions or isolation orders, Secure Remote Access enables them to continue working remotely with industrial grade security from anywhere in the world. It provides more secure connectivity to critical networks for your staff, Honeywell support teams, or third parties.
Off-site experts can support local onsite teams, to both operational and cybersecurity events, remotely at a faster rate – potentially minimizing the severity of impact. Additionally, the ability to respond remotely eliminates travel time and travel costs, which proves to be especially vital during these difficult times of cost cutting measures and travel restrictions.
MSS Secure Remote Access delivers industrial grade cybersecurity that goes well beyond standard VPN and Remote Desktop Services with granular controls such as multifactor authentication, customer controlled authorization, real time supervision, session recording, termination, and play back capabilities provide industrial grade remote access that is more secure than traditional VPN/RDP.
Supported on Honeywell and non-Honeywell Environments and Users
