Secomea SiteManager secure remote access solution

Providing more than a VPN or RDP, the Secomea secure remote access solution creates a transparent yet highly secure channel over the internet or mobile network between the client terminal and the destination network or host.

With the use of an intermediary cloud, GateManager, a number of benefits are realised over other methods.

Setup is an easy, almost ‘out of the box’ solution. Authentication is via client certificate, eliminating password sharing and changing when staff leave the organisation.

Traffic is initiated by the local SiteManager device and can use commonly accessible TCP ports to work within firewall rules. The client programming software sees the equipment as if it were locally connected so there is no need for intermediate site PCs.

The SiteManager is available with a USB port for accessing devices such as low-end PLCs. There is also an ethernet port, serial port, digital I/O and the option of a 3G/GPRS modem model.

All models include pre-defined device agents for all leading brands of PLCs, HMIs and other industrial devices. Furthermore, by connecting both the wired and wireless (3G) uplinks, a built-in failover function ensures that the connection is maintained if one uplink fails.
