The new frontier in industrial network security
Network security plays an important role in companies dedicated to automation.
To make everything much easier and more secure, Helmholz created WALL IE, a device that protects machines from attack attempts and improves connectivity from a simple and intuitive graphical interface.
WALL IE offers two operating modes:
NAT Mode: This mode allows different networks to be connected to each other, ideal for easily integrating new machines without modifying the main network.
- Accessing devices located on isolated segments.
- Isolating the internal network from new machines, avoiding conflicts or unwanted access.
- Protecting existing machines, keeping them separate from new traffic thanks to the network segmentation.
- Securing sensitive network components by filtering the traffic that reaches them.
Bridge Mode: In this mode, WALL IE functions as a switch, connecting devices within the same network, functioning like a switch, but with intelligent filtering. Perfect for:
- Strengthening the security of the existing network by applying rules without reconfiguring devices.
- Increasing Network Performance, avoiding Broadcast messages that slow down the rest of the network.
- Improving overall performance without requiring major changes to the infrastructure.
- Filtering the network traffic (IPv4 , TCP , UDP , Ports).
Thanks to its compact design and ease of configuration, the Helmholz WALL IE is positioned as a key tool for companies looking to combine security, flexibility and connectivity in their industrial networks.
