What are the latest PROFINET developments, and how will they impact device development, industrial security, and future automation applications?
Join us for an upcoming webinar to gain insight into key industrial communication topics:
- Security – Cybersecurity in industrial communication is becoming increasingly essential. Regulatory requirements, such as the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), and growing cyber threats are raising key questions for businesses: Where do their own risks originate? What needs to be protected? And which security measures are actually necessary for the specific application? From understanding your own risk, through the selection of suitable security measures, to configuration and operation, this webinar offers a practical introduction to PROFINET Security.
