7.2 Secomea Products
Note Activation and deployment of the Secomea product features is optional. SiteManager, GateManager, and
LinkManager products are licensed, sold, and supported by Secomea and Secomea’s licensed distributors. QuickPanel
+
customers wanting
to activate licenses for Secomea products can do so at www.secomea.com.
The available Secomea SiteManager (embedded on QuickPanel
+
), GateManager, and LinkManager products are
described as follows:
SiteManager is a device-monitoring front-end feature for multiple industrial devices on a location. Working with
GateManager and LinkManager, it ensures uninterrupted and secure access to remote devices over the Internet or a
private Wide-area Network (WAN) for all users.
LinkManager is an off-the-shelf software component in Remote Device Management Solutions from Secomea that
provides security for external programming and monitoring applications. LinkManager Mobile provides similar
functionality for mobile devices.
GateManager is the central component of Secomea’s Industry solution. The GateManager M2M Server operates as a
termination point for all LinkManagers and SiteManagers. All connections and the encrypted traffic between
LinkManagers
and devices controlled by SiteManagers are handled by the GateManager, where all events are also logged.
Note The GateManager is typically offered as a service hosted by Secomea. Users will receive an isolated domain on the
GateManager and benefit from central hosting and back-up by Secomea. Or, the user can host their own GateManager.
Additionally, other devices such as PLCs and PCs (in addition to the QuickPanel
+
) can be added as new agents on the
Secomea network to be part of Secured Communication using the Add Agents feature in the SiteManager GUI. This
can be achieved using extended license feature from Secomea.
Note Secomea products installed throughout the application as suggested by the following figure do not intrinsically
provide the level of security associated with firewalls. The network architect needs to satisfy himself or herself that the
security level required by the application is present in the overall implementation.
