BANGALORE, INDIA: Belden Inc., a provider in signal transmission solutions for mission-critical applications, has released its Tofino Security solutions for industrial control systems.
The new Tofino Xenon and Tofino Configurator (TC 2.0) offer a level of flexibility and customization and enable network managers to easily upgrade their existing systems without downtime.
The evolution of Belden's security hardware and software solutions now include increased customization capabilities and improved ease of use. The enhancements of these products allow industries, such as oil and gas, power utilities and manufacturing, to easily install upgrades on live systems with minimal configuration. Ultimately, the new features will maximize network uptime by enhancing overall data security and reducing operational risks.
The Tofino Xenon is designed to withstand the harshest conditions, while ensuring maximum data security for production networks. Other benefits of the Xenon include:
- Custom-built options, such as designated temperature ranges and software modules.
- Compliance with global standards, customizable for use in electrical substations, hazardous environments or transportation systems.
- Easy integration into existing, live networks with no pre-configuration needs or risk of production disruptions.
To configure and manage the Xenon appliances, Belden has also rolled out a complementary Windows-based management software. The TC 2.0 was developed with input from a major oil company and designed to be faster and easier to use.
Predefined templates enable the software to accommodate both basic and advanced network security needs. With a more intuitive user interface and simpler deployment process, the TC 2.0 also integrates into third-party security products. It offers built-in guidance for easy, accurate rule creation by operations and engineering staff who may not be full-time network security experts.
