Tofino Xenon Security Appliance Release 3.2

The Tofino Xenon Security Appliance Release 3.2 supports the Tofino Xenon Generic Object-Oriented System Events (GOOSE) Enforcer Loadable Security Module (LSM), to help protect critical energy infrastructure. The plug-in security module ensures data packets are delivered in a secure and scalable manner.

The product is said to enable users to better manage networks through several features. They can simplify compliance to safety and security standards with updated protection against attacks and misconfigurations, as well as reduce downtime, maintenance time and production losses by managing large deployments of data from a central location. In addition, improved integration capabilities with Tripwire solutions are said to improve system stability.

The Tofino Xenon GOOSE Enforcer LSM, the featured update to Release 3.2, is suited to sectors that require enhanced DPI to prevent attacks and support dispersed network communications, SCADA Master Station protection and NERC CIP compliance. The device is suitable for industrial markets that communicate over long distances, often from a centralised location, such as the energy, manufacturing, machine building, food and beverage, and water/wastewater sectors.
