Building automation systems offer substantial benefits in terms of energy efficiency, comfort, operational cost savings, and security. However, they also introduce significant cyber security risks that need to be managed. By implementing robust security measures and staying vigilant, the advantages of BAS can be fully realized while mitigating potential cyber threats.
This webinar draws on the knowledge of experts from Carrier’s Automated Logic who discuss the benefits and risks of employing a modern BAS that shares the building’s IP (internet protocol) network with all the other business data.
They illustrate how applying systems such as the ASHRAE originated BACnet Secure Connect (BACnet/SC) secures building automation and control networks from possible threats using standards that are already widely accepted, supported and maintained by the IT community.
