Stormshield, a leading European player in the cybersecurity market, announces the launch of its new SNi10 firewall. This solution complements Stormshield’s already powerful range of operational system (OT) protection solutions and satisfies the specific security and interconnection needs for industrial equipment. Designed to offer optimum protection in critical environments, the SNi10 firewall is an all-in-one device that is perfectly suited to industrial infrastructures requiring robustness and efficiency.
The Stormshield Network Security range is distinguished by its high-performance inspection engine, ensuring a detailed analysis of industrial protocols. Through its integration of advanced security functions, this engine identifies and protects industrial communications from major manufacturers – a function which is essential for the smooth running of operational processes. The SNi10 firewall meets the challenge of ensuring the security of commands and data exchanged with PLCs, which constitute crucial information, while facilitating the interconnection of industrial assets in complex environments.
Key features of the SNi10 firewall
Easy integration
The firewall isolates the various elements of the operational network via an implementation in bridge, routed or hybrid mode, guaranteeing totally seamless integration. In addition, it has a DIN rail for modular integration and easy wall mounting, making it suitable for all IT/OT environments.
Guaranteed operational
The products implemented in Stormshield’s industrial offering are designed to meet the performance and availability requirements for operational networks. This enables each organisation to protect its infrastructure while ensuring its smooth operation. They are also perfectly suited to the specific constraints of industrial environments, with extended operating temperatures (between -20°C and 60°C) and an industrial power supply (12-48V DC).
Confidentiality assured
Through segmentation, user authentication and VPN functions, Stormshield Network Security solutions provide remote operator access controls and secure remote maintenance actions. In addition, the Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) of standard industrial protocols verifies data to ensure that processes are operating correctly.
“Industrial companies are prime targets for cybercriminals because of the interconnections between different infrastructures, and they need to be protected,” says Stéphane Moreau, Product Manager at Stormshield. “The SNi10 firewall is a solution that’s been specifically designed to address this issue. It makes it easier to protect operational systems thanks to essential functions such as segmentation, in-depth analysis and access control.”
