Sensors Emerson helps customers deploy devices and wireless networks that measure and track everything from energy efficiency and hazardous gas leaks to corrosion and maintenance needs. These devices and networks are designed with always-on security capabilities front and center, with features such as encryption and key management. This high level of security makes them suitable for use in critical OT systems.
These communication connections at manufacturing facilities must be designed to allow companies to selectively connect highly secure OT data with highly secure private or cloud networks for real-time analysis.
A secure first mile can be achieved using a tiered network infrastructure to connect the OT network to the internet. Tiered networks provide security by protecting different tiers with specialized firewalls and applications. Generally speaking, this approach is well-accepted because it relies on services most companies have already vetted, and have met the most stringent global security certifications and regional requirements. People and Policies Manufacturers need to develop and enforce clear security policies that are known and understood by all employees who interact with IoT network elements.
Access to equipment and software should be limited to employees with a direct need, and access to facilities where Industrial IoT is deployed must be strictly controlled to maximize both the security and value of data.
It is suitable for group setting where more than one individual is working on highly confidential projects. CipherShield design features a chip embedded in the access key which matches the AES encryption module on the controller board. The drive will automatically lock down its content once the key is unplugged, or power is shut off.
And without the access key, data will not be seen or accessed in the event of theft or loss of the external drive. You do not need to remember complicated password or PIN. Unit is bundled with two keys and registration is required for key duplication. TrueCrypt comes up frequently in Ask Leo!
Many people are concerned about things like privacy, identity and data theft, particularly on computers or on portable devices where they might not always have total physical control of the media.
Encrypting your data renders that access useless, even when your computer or your thumbdrive falls into the wrong hands. Since TrueCrypt development has halted and no fix is likely forthcoming, I can no longer recommend its use. My tentative understanding is that VeraCrypt is a free, compatible, and supported alternative, based on a fork of the original TrueCrypt code. And yes, these most recent vulnerabilities are supposedly fixed therein.
Become a Patron of Ask Leo! TrueCrypt is not tied to any one platform, your user account or anything else; just the pass phrase. In fact, you can copy your encrypted file to another machine entirely and mount it with TrueCrypt.
Even using other operating systems such as Mac or Linux. Data encryption is an important part of an overall security strategy. TrueCrypt can be a key part of that strategy. Subscribe to Confident Computing! Less frustration and more confidence, solutions, answers, and tips in your inbox every week. A nice article. They even have like hidden volumes hidden systems, of which the existence if all guidelines are followed will be impossible to prove.
For more information, refer to their website. Thanks for the recommendation. I would also encrypt that storage device, as well in case, but that is the direction I am heading now. For the second solution, I think it is more advanced but people can still access the data too, by using password finder softwares but much more difficult to do. However, these softwares can only work on common encrypter softwares like WinRar or so , so to prevent thieves, I recommend using rare encryption formats like kge, zip files v Thank you for the article.
Here I just want to contribute to the tips. Best wishes. It seems to me without trying my guess out that TrueCrypt could also be used to protect emails between users.
Do you consider this possible oh, yeah, and reasonably easy? RE: EMAIL and secure stuff, YES, you could create a small truecrypt vault, include your data, email the truecrypt vault, and either phone your friend with the decryption key, OR evn send them the key in a different email from a different account depending on sensitvity of info in that vault. AND, you can create your own personal USB stick, with password programs, ec, on it; create a truecrypt vault on the usb stick, and copy over your programs.
THEN, in the root directory of the usb stick unencrypted , copy over the TrueCrypt program folder itself. With regards to being able to crack it — not possible without a cray computer and years to work with.
