Security information

1.1 Security information

Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary
to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security
concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.
Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems,
machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected to
an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary and only
when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are in place.
For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please
visit
https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity (https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure.
Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are available
and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no longer
supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber
threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS Feed
under
https://www.siemens.com/cert (https://www.siemens.com/cert).

Security recommendations 3
NOTICE
Information security
Connect to the device and change the standard password for the user set in the factory "admin"
and "" before you operate the device.

To prevent unauthorized access to the device and/or network, observe the following security
recommendations.

General
• Check the device regularly to ensure that these recommendations and/or other internal
security policies are complied with.
• Evaluate the security of your location and use a cell protection concept with suitable products
(https://www.industry.siemens.com/topics/global/en/industrial-security/pages/
default.aspx).
• When the internal and external network are disconnected, an attacker cannot access internal
data from the outside. Therefore operate the device only within a protected network area.
• No product liability will be accepted for operation in a non-secure infrastructure.
• Use VPN to encrypt and authenticate communication from and to the devices.
• For data transmission via a non-secure network, use an encrypted VPN tunnel (IPsec,
OpenVPN).
• Separate connections correctly (WBM, SSH etc.).
• Check the user documentation of other Siemens products that are used together with the
device for additional security recommendations.
• Using remote logging, ensure that the system protocols are forwarded to a central logging
server. Make sure that the server is within the protected network and check the protocols
regularly for potential security violations or vulnerabilities.

Physical access
• Restrict physical access to the device to qualified personnel.
• Lock unused physical ports on the device. Unused ports can be used to gain forbidden access
to the plant.

Operating Instructions, 06/2022, C79000-G8976-C359-11 11
Security recommendations

Software (security functions)

• Keep the firmware up to date. Check regularly for security updates for the device. You can
find information on this at the Industrial Security (https://www.siemens.com/
industrialsecurity) website.
• Inform yourself regularly about security recommendations published by Siemens
ProductCERT (https://www.siemens.com/cert/en/cert-security-advisories.htm).
• Only activate protocols that you require to use the device.
• Restrict access to the management of the device with rules in an access control list (ACL).
• The option of VLAN structuring provides protection against DoS attacks and unauthorized
access. Check whether this is practical or useful in your environment.
• Use a central logging server to log changes and accesses. Operate your logging server within
the protected network area and check the logging information regularly.

Authentication

Note
Accessibility risk - Risk of data loss
Do not lose the passwords for the device. Access to the device can only be restored by resetting
the device to factory settings which completely removes all configuration data.

• Replace the default passwords for all user accounts, access modes and applications (if
applicable) before you use the device.
• Define rules for the assignment of passwords.
• Use passwords with a high password strength. Avoid weak passwords, (e.g. password1,
123456789, abcdefgh) or recurring characters (e.g. abcabc).
This recommendation also applies to symmetrical passwords/keys configured on the device.
• Make sure that passwords are protected and only disclosed to authorized personnel.
• Do not use the same passwords for multiple user names and systems.
• Store the passwords in a safe location (not online) to have them available if they are lost.
• Regularly change your passwords to increase security.
• A password must be changed if it is known or suspected to be known by unauthorized
persons.
• When user authentication is performed via RADIUS, make sure that all communication takes
place within the security environment or is protected by a secure channel.
• Watch out for link layer protocols that do not offer their own authentication between
endpoints, such as ARP or IPv4. An attacker could use vulnerabilities in these protocols to
attack hosts, switches and routers connected to your layer 2 network, for example, through
manipulation (poisoning) of the ARP caches of systems in the subnet and subsequent
interception of the data traffic. Appropriate security measures must be taken for non-secure
layer 2 protocols to prevent unauthorized access to the network. Physical access to the local
network can be secured or secure, higher layer protocols can be used, among other things.

12 Operating Instructions, 06/2022, C79000-G8976-C359-11
 Security recommendations

Certificates and keys

• There is a preset SSL/TLS (RSA) certificate with 2048 bit key length in the device. Replace this
certificate with a user-generated, high-quality certificate with key. Use a certificate signed by
a reliable external or internal certification authority. You can install the certificate via the
WBM ("System > Load and Save").
• Use certificates with a key length of 4096 bits.
• Use the certification authority including key revocation and management to sign the
certificates.
• Make sure that user-defined private keys are protected and inaccessible to unauthorized
persons.
• If there is a suspected security violation, change all certificates and keys immediately.
• Use password-protected certificates in the format "PKCS #12".
• Verify certificates based on the fingerprint on the server and client side to prevent "man in the
middle" attacks. Use a second, secure transmission path for this.
• Before sending the device to Siemens for repair, replace the current certificates and keys with
temporary disposable certificates and keys, which can be destroyed when the device is
returned.

Secure/non-secure protocols and services

• Avoid or disable non-secure protocols and services, for example HTTP, Telnet and TFTP. For
historical reasons, these protocols are available, however not intended for secure
applications. Use non-secure protocols on the device with caution.
• Check whether use of the following protocols and services is necessary:
– Non authenticated and unencrypted ports
– MRP, HRP
– IGMP snooping
– LLDP
– Syslog
– RADIUS
– DHCP Options 66/67
– TFTP
– GMRP and GVRP

SCALANCE XB-200
Operating Instructions, 06/2022, C79000-G8976-C359-11 13
Security recommendations

• The following protocols provide secure alternatives:

– HTTP → HTTPS
– Telnet → SSH
– SNMPv1/v2c → SNMPv3
Check whether use of SNMPv1/v2c. is necessary. SNMPv1/v2c is classified as non-secure.
Use the option of preventing write access. The device provides you with suitable setting
options.
If SNMP is enabled, change the community names. If no unrestricted access is necessary,
restrict access with SNMP.
Use the authentication and encryption mechanisms of SNMPv3.
• Use secure protocols when access to the device is not prevented by physical protection
measures.
• If you require non-secure protocols and services, operate the device only within a protected
network area.
• Restrict the services and protocols available to the outside to a minimum.
• For the DCP function, enable the "Read Only" mode after commissioning.
• If you use RADIUS for management access to the device, activate secure protocols and
services.

Interfaces security
• Disable unused interfaces.
• Use IEEE 802.1X for interface authentication.
• Use the function "Locked Ports" to block interfaces for unknown nodes.
• Use the configuration options of the interfaces, e.g. the "Edge Type".
• Configure the receive ports so that they discard all untagged frames ("Tagged Frames Only").

Available protocols
The following list provides you with an overview of the open protocol ports.
The table includes the following columns:

MDI / MDI-X autocrossover

With the MPI/MDI-X autocrossover function, the send and receive contacts of an Ethernet port
are assigned automatically. The assignment depends on the cable with which the
communications partner is connected. This means that it does not matter whether the port is
connected using a patch cable or crossover cable. This prevents malfunctions resulting from
mismatching send and receive wires. This makes installation much easier for the user.

Note
Formation of loops
Please note that the direct connection of two ports on the IE switch or accidental connection
over several IE switches causes an illegal loop. Such a loop can lead to network overload and
network failures.

Autonegotiation
Autonegotiation means the automatic detection/negotiation of the transmission rate and the
operating mode of ports at the opposite end. This makes it possible to configure different devices
automatically.
Two components connected to a link segment can exchange information about the transfer and
can adapt their settings to each other. The mode with the highest possible speed is set.

Note
• If a port is set permanently to full duplex, the connected partner port must also be set to full
duplex.
• If a port operating in the "Auto negotiation" mode is connected to a partner port that is not
operating in the"Auto negotiation" mode, the partner port setting must be fixed at 100 Mbps
or 10 Mbps half duplex mode.
• If you disable the "Auto negotiation" function, the "MDI/MDI-X autocrossover" function is also
turned off. Then use a crossover cable.

CAUTION
Damage to the device due to overvoltage
The connector of the external power supply is not protected against strong electromagnetic
pulses that can, for example, result from lightning strikes or switching large loads.
One of the tests used to attest the immunity of devices of the SCALANCE CB-200 IE switches to
electromagnetic interference is the "surge immunity test" according to EN61000-4-5. This test
requires overvoltage protection for the power supply lines. A suitable device is, for example, the
Dehn Blitzductor BVT AVD 24, article number 918 422 or a comparable protective element.
Manufacturer: DEHN+SOEHNE GmbH+Co.KG, Hans-Dehn-Str.1, Postfach 1640, D92306

6.6 Functional ground

EMC disturbances are diverted to ground via the functional ground. This ensures the immunity
of the data transmission.
The functional ground must be implemented with low impedance. The connection of the
functional ground must be established directly on the mounting plate or the DIN rail terminal.
The IE switch has a terminal for functional ground, refer to the section "Power supply (Page 39)".
Keep to the specified cross-sectional area for the functional ground.

Connecting up
6.6 Functional ground

The terminal is identified by the following symbol for the functional ground .
Follow the steps below to connect the functional ground:
1. Connect the terminal of the IE switch with as short a cable as possible ≤ 150 mm and with the
required cross-sectional area to a grounded part of the system (DIN rail).
2. Connect the DIN rail with the ground of the system.

Protective/functional ground

The connection of the reference potential surface with the protective ground system is normally
in the cabinet close to the power feed-in. This ground conducts fault currents to ground safely
and according DIN/VDE 0100 is a protective ground to protect people, animals and property from
too high contact voltages.
Apart from the protective ground, there is functional grounding in the cabinet. According to
EN60204-1 (DIN/VDE 0113 T1) electrical circuits must be grounded. The chassis (0 V) is
grounded at one defined point. Here, once again the grounding is implemented with the lowest
leakage resistance to ground in the vicinity of the power feed-in.
With automation components, functional ground also ensures interference-free operation of a
controller. Via the functional ground, interference currents coupled in via the connecting cables
are discharged to ground.
