PipePatrol Cyber Security
Cyber security solution for pipeline management
- Complementing solutions for pipeline monitoring and protection
- Protection against cyber risks
- Secure communication, fulfilling the latest standards
Overview
Together with our partners we provide innovative technologies for secure communication in manufacturing and process automation and monitoring. Cyber risks arise from increased networking throughout the whole value chain which applies for the process industry as well and certainly for a data transmission solution for pipeline monitoring and leakage detection systems. In order to guarantee secure data transmission and the function of pipeline monitoring systems, the cyber security solutions are an essential part of the necessary scope of supply for any modern system.
