Cisco Industrial IoT

AN INDUSTRIAL NETWORK

SCALE, FLEXIBILITY, performance, security, and resiliency is the key to reliable operations where operational data can be easily for industrial agility and increased profitability.

For over 20 years, Cisco has offered a comprehensive portfolio of industrial switches, routers, and wireless which are purpose-built for every industrial sector. Cisco industrial switches enable resiliency to minimize downtime, support communications protocols between control systems and machinery with minimal delay, and protect operations with visibility, data encryption, and network segmentation. Cisco industrial Wi-Fi, Ultra-Reliable Wireless Backhaul, and LoRaWAN solutions extend the wired network with dependable connectivity to mobile devices and sensors. Cisco industrial routers help securely connect your distributed field operations over 5G and SD-WAN to your enterprise and the cloud.

All Cisco industrial switches, routers, wireless network devices are managed and secured by the same proven tools that IT has used and trusted for many years. Network innovations allow OT teams to run advanced services within the equipment obviating the need for additional servers, networking complexity, and expense, while increasing the collaboration between IT and OT.

Organizations around the world are connecting their industrial environments to enterprise networks to automate production and gain operational advantages. Organizations are deploying IoT technologies to migrate to Industry 4.0, optimize production, and build new generations of products and services. This deeper integration between IT, cloud, and industrial networks is creating many cybersecurity issues that are becoming the primary obstacle to industry digitization efforts.

Cisco’s approach to industrial security starts with gaining deep visibility. Cisco Cyber Vision runs within Cisco industrial networking equipment, analyzes traffic, identifies assets, discovers security vulnerabilities, and helps define policies for effective segmentation in conjunction with Cisco Identity Services Engine. Cisco leverages its unique enterprise security portfolios of products and solutions, together with threat intelligence from Talos®, one of the world’s largest security research teams, to make security inherent and embedded in the industrial network.

Cisco has built and tested joint architectures with leading Industrial Automation and Control Systems vendors such as Rockwell Automation and Schneider Electric, making it easy for customers to implement a complete solution while minimizing risks.

Cisco is the only IT/OT networking company
