Security
Layered Cybersecurity
Networks are protected with multiple layers of cybersecurity, including securing access and permissions, detecting malware, encrypting data, and logging events.
Threat Detection/Analysis
These SEL devices have built-in malware detection or can identify nonauthorized network traffic.
Encryption
These communications devices encrypt data streams for security.
Auditability
Security devices collect critical event information to simplify audit reporting.
Secure Access
Devices with secure access authenticate users, control privileges, and create audit trails.
Firewalls
Firewalls control incoming and outgoing network traffic and are often integrated into routers.
Routers
Routers forward data packets to and from different networks. In utility networks, routers are often used to create security perimeters around substation LANs.
