Schneider Electric First in Industry to Obtain Higher Level

Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, today announced an industry first: its EcoStruxure IT Network Management Card 3 (NMC3) platform has obtained a new and higher level of cybersecurity certification, making it the first Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) network card to achieve IEC 62443-4-2 Security Level 2 (SL2) designation from the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).TUV Rheinland, one of the world's largest and leading testing providers, has independently certified the NMC3 platform, ensuring vendor products designed for data center and distributed IT environments meet a set of well-defined security requirements and undergo thorough testing and assessment.

This new and higher level of cybersecurity certification underscores Schneider Electric's commitment to leading the industry in secure operations and better protects against cyberthreats. SL2 certification provides more stringent requirements and increased security resiliency than SL1, which was obtained last year.

In addition to the new standard, TUV Rheinland has certified Schneider Electric and the cybersecurity processes used to develop our products, including the NMC3, as ISASecure Registered Secure Development Lifecycle Assurance (SDLA) compliant.The NMC3 is embedded in the majority of Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure IT DCIM products and provides a robust, remotely accessible management application over the network for critical power and cooling infrastructure.

"According to the 2024 Allianz Risk Barometer, cyber incidents are ranked as the number one business concern. At an average reported cost of more than $4 million an incident, we understand why cybersecurity tops the priority list for CIOs," said Kevin Brown, SVP for EcoStruxure IT, Data Center Business, Schneider Electric. "With the IEC 62443-4-2 SL2 and ISASecure Registered SDLA cybersecurity certifications, Schneider Electric is leading the industry with this dual certification helping to reduce risks to critical infrastructure."

Simplifying the process of installing firmware

Companies are challenged to keep up with firmware updates. Many enterprise customers manage their critical power and cooling infrastructure with their own in-house management tools, third-party network management tools, or building management systems. These systems don't know when the firmware at your connected endpoints - particularly in distributed and edge environments - requires an update.

The EcoStruxure IT Secure NMC System offers improved embedded firmware management thanks to a new dedicated tool. The Secure NMC System Tool transforms the cumbersome process of researching and installing the latest firmware on all devices, making the process up to 90% faster. Users no longer need to search for firmware on an ad hoc basis, check to see if that firmware is the latest one for your device, and read the release notes to understand what's included in the new version before they download it and update their device. Instead, the Secure NMC System Tool notifies customers that new firmware is available and directs them to install the new version.

The benefits of the Secure NMC System include:

1. Eliminate fear of becoming outdated: Simplifies firmware management, making it up to 90% faster and reducing risk.

2. Achieve consistent compliance: Customers have a systematic, standardized approach to cybersecurity updates for their critical power and cooling infrastructure.

3. Reduce exposure to potential attack: IEC 62443-4-2 SL2 and ISASecure Registered SDLA cybersecurity certifications combined with the Secure NMC System Tool ensures connected devices are protected with the latest security updates.

"EcoStruxure IT is providing customers with a powerful approach - the flexibility to manage their IT infrastructure as they choose and to do it simply while also managing their cybersecurity compliance because being secure doesn't mean it has to be difficult," Brown said. "We are the first in the industry providing this solution as we continue our commitment to enable resilient, secure, and sustainable IT infrastructure."
