Highly secure direct access
03 July 2014
All B&R controllers have an FTP server on board as a standard feature. A protection mechanism with integrated user name and password management now makes accessing this server even more secure – without sacrificing ease of operation.

Direct access to the controller is becoming increasingly important and automation developers must maintain a high level of security when preparing the functions involved, while also ensuring they are simple to learn and easy to operate.
Management of user data and assigned rights is integrated in Automation Studio. This data is stored on the runtime system in encrypted form to ensure seamless security.
