Best Practices for the AVEVA PI Data Infrastructure
Securing your data and infrastructure has never been more important than today!
In an evolving market of cyber security threats, security in depth is necessary to retain a secure and stable operation. Today's cybersecurity landscape is characterized by the increasing sophistication of threats, fueled by advancements in technologies like AI and machine learning.
Attackers are exploiting a wider range of vulnerabilities, from supply chains and IoT devices to cloud environments, targeting diverse victims, including individuals, businesses, and even nation-states.
The impact of an successful attack can be significantly reduced with the modern measures as you would effectively prevent the spread within your organization.
Build for security, design for failure!
- Zero Trust is a security model centered on the principle of "zero trust, always verify." In this model, all connections—whether for data ingress or egress—must be initiated by an authenticated and authorized individual or system.
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is a method of managing user permissions and access within an organization based on assigned roles. Each role corresponds to a set of responsibilities and permissions, which defines what actions a user in that role can perform and what resources they can access.
- Application isolation is where you segregate your applications with network isolation. This isolates applications and networks from communicate without explicit approval.
- Keeping your System up to date is one of the most effective ways to protect against security vulnerabilities. Ensure all system components receive the latest patches and security updates.
- Best practice configuration and application hardening measures is essential to minimize vulnerabilities and reduce the attack surface.
- Secure and Reliable Backups with periodic testing to guarantee successful restoration when needed.
- A well-defined Incident Response Plan is crucial for swiftly addressing security breaches and minimizing impact.
