How It Works

Built-In Security Features

DeltaV™ is ISASecure SSA Level 1 certified and Emerson’s NextGen Smart Firewall provides protection against emerging threats and segments the control system from untrusted networks, delivering a system inherently protected from unauthorized external access. 

DeltaV installation uses the latest operating system hardening templates and disables unused system services to create a more secure workstation. Microsoft Windows Group Policies are used to prevent access to removable media and can be customized to address your specific use cases.

Reduce Implementation Effort

DeltaV Smart Switches provide auto port lockdown to prevent unauthorized access to the network from switch ports. The Firewall-IPD adds an additional layer of security to protect DeltaV embedded nodes. The Emerson Smart Firewall creates easy-to-implement system perimeter-security features to help protect your system from unauthorized access by people or applications on external networks.

Monitor and Manage Devices

Monitor and manage network devices within the DeltaV system. All routine system maintenance and troubleshooting is done from secured DeltaV workstations so physical access to equipment is not required. This reduces security risks, as no unsecured external equipment is required to service the system. No open network ports on field equipment are necessary, so risk of unauthorized access is eliminated.

Improve System Availability

All network equipment supplied with the DeltaV system is fully tested and supported by Emerson as part of DeltaV development. There are no incompatibility “surprises” during implementation and commissioning of the system. System troubleshooting is simpler and faster because we can easily eliminate component incompatibility issues as being part of the problem.
