Webinar

Pilz UK Product Manager David Collier will be hosting a webinar 'Safety & Industrial Security' on 9th October, where he'll be providing an overview of the suite of EN 62443 standards (parts 1-4), the attendant Security Levels (not to be confused with Safety Integrity Levels) and how the now-available Pilz Security Bridge – a two port firewall with additional features such as VPN -  can be used as part of a “Defence in Depth” strategy to protect your industrial and automation control systems from cyber attacks.
