Identification & Access Management

Industrial Security – Safety needs protection through Security

Machinery safety is changing: Industrial Security is making its way into OT (Operational Technology). The EU Machinery Regulation (MR) and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) make it clear: Without Security, there is no Safety! Every security function in a machine can be compromised and thus pose a risk. This is why Industrial Security is indispensable today for the protection of Safety and the safe operation of machines and systems.

Pilz – your partner for Industrial Security

Pilz has many years of experience in functional safety and is actively involved in standards committees that deal with risk analyses and safety requirements – also in the field of Industrial Security. Therefore, we know the points of attack where people with malicious intentions could deliberately try to compromise investments.

The Industrial Security Portfolio – Step by Step to a Secure Machine

Our Industrial Security portfolio consists of various solution elements. With these, we accompany our customers step by step on the way to a safe machine.

The first step in implementing Industrial Security in your own company is the targeted development of knowledge on the topic and the legal and normative requirements. The "Fundamentals of Industrial Security" training course is ideally suited for this and offers a quick start thanks to a compact knowledge structure on terminologies, requirements and understanding of cybersecurity in the context of machine and network security. Best practices promote an understanding of cybersecurity risks in your own production. The advanced course "CESA – Certified Expert for Security in Automation" is an expert training course with a focus on IEC 62443, where participants learn how to correctly apply and prove the standard so that their automation systems comply with modern cybersecurity standards. After successfully passing the exam, you will receive the personal qualification as a "CESA – Certified Expert for Security in Automation" certified by TÜV NORD.

Tailor-made services for Industrial Security like risk analyses help to uncover and evaluate security-endangering risks, set protection goals and define risk-reducing security measures.

Suitable product solutions such as Identification and Access Management help to put these analyses into practice.

Communicate safely at field level – in one system

IO-Link Safety opens up new possibilities for flexible and efficient automation. How does it work? It's simple: safe point-to-point communication enables the seamless integration of sensors directly in the field – quickly, easily and reliably. At the same time, you benefit from extended diagnostic options that provide targeted support for your process optimisation. Thanks to simple installation, fast wiring and intelligent diagnostic functions, you create the basis for flexible and productive automation.

Your advantages at a glance:

- Safe communication from the controller to the sensor in the field
- Globally standardised in accordance with IEC 61139-2
- Maximum safety up to Performance Level e according to EN ISO 13849-1 (SIL 3 according to IEC 61508/62061)
- Independent of the fieldbus system

Pilz supports you with integration into your application and offers a complete system from a single source: master, devices, suitable cables and configuration tool.

Automate safely – with Pilz safety sensors

The correct use of sensors in the field enables a consistent safety concept and therefore safe automation. Pilz offers a versatile portfolio of safety sensors for a wide range of applications:

- Safety switches for position monitoring
- Safety locking devices for safety gate protection
- Safety light curtains for guarding danger zones
- Safety laser scanners for area monitoring
- Safe radar systems for protection zone monitoring

PILZ safety sensors protect people and machines – while maintaining maximum productivity. They are durable, robust in use and comply with international safety standards. Thanks to comprehensive diagnostic data, the sensors enable predictive maintenance and reduce downtime. Flexible in use, they can be used to implement individual safety solutions. In combination with control technology from Pilz, they create a holistic automation solution – safe, efficient, and future-oriented.

MYZEL® Lifecycle – Safety for human and machines in one platform

In an increasingly connected production world, data is the key to efficiency, safety and future viability. The MYZEL Lifecycle Platform supports machine manufacturers and operators in mastering challenges relating to safety, security and legal compliance throughout the entire machine lifecycle.

Our modern Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution links machine and personal data, visualises relevant information and makes it usable in a targeted manner. This not only allows you to keep track of the compliance of your machines and minimise liability risks, but also opens up new potential for productivity, employee and data protection.

What the MYZEL Lifecycle Platform offers you:
- Structured document storage: Security, traceability, legal compliance and liability protection
- Digital workflows: Checklists ensure error-free documentation
- Transparency: Centralised overview of the status of all tasks throughout the machine lifecycle
- Liability risks are minimised: Full documentation of all necessary safety measures
- Increased safety: Employees are protected through the identification and elimination of hazards
- Greater efficiency: Automated processes, minimised downtimes and clear dashboards optimise productivity
- Time saving: Reduced administrative workload allows those responsible to concentrate on their core tasks
- Highest security standard: Data is stored in the EU and the platform is certified in accordance with ISO/IEC 27017 and ISO/IEC 27018
