Secured by Cimetrics™
With the release of BACnet/SC (Secure Connect) in late 2019, building automation systems now have an IT-centric security standard as a foundation to make securing the whole building possible. Secured by Cimetrics is the manifestation of this mission, created by the leading provider of BACnet stacks to more than 60% of automation vendors.
Secured by Cimetrics takes a holistic view of security, starting by providing a secure and interoperable management layer on top of BACnet/SC. Devices that are SbC-managed enable them to be securely installed, authenticated, and authorized to be part of the network. Managed devices can also be securely configured using interoperable tools from the most appropriate tool and application vendor.
Ongoing device and system management are also enabled by the Secured by Cimetrics framework, including communication configuration; backup/restore; software updates; network/device event logging; and integration with IT and enterprise tools, services and applications.
Secured by Cimetrics provides tools for building systems engineers as well as IT and security organizations to engineer, manage, and operate their automation systems’ cybersecurity defenses.
