Matrikon® DMZ Agent™ provides a secure, standardized solution for accessing
real-time and archived control automation data across De-Militarized Zones (DMZs)
using off the shelf MatrikonOPC products.
Problem: Corporate IT departments implement DMZs to protect network assets
by layering and isolating secure zones from those that are considered less secure.
Network traffic is restricted between these layers via multiple firewalls and a
common PC between them. While DMZs work to secure the automation environment from
the dangers present in the outside world, they prevent necessary operations and
business applications from accessing key data using traditional methods.
Solution: DMZ Agent™ overcomes DMZ related control data sharing issues by
providing engineers and system integrators with two time-tested OPC architectures
depending on design and corporate security policies.
The DMZ Agent Pull solution enables permitted enterprise applications to
securely initiate requests for OPC data located within a
secure network.
The DMZ Agent Push solution allows permitted enterprise applications to receive
secure network data pushed from within a DMZ (one way firewall configuration).
Key Benefits:
Streamlined architecture provides flexible configuration depending on data needs.
Easy to use, requires minimal configuration and maintenance.
Eliminates traditional DCOM and firewall issues associated with DMZs
Provides secure, controlled access to process data.
Enables access from multiple data sources to multiple users
Works across multi-layered networks.
Push architecture provides access to historical data.
Pull architecture provides access to real time and/or historical data.
Pushes data to an archive outside the DMZ or allows OPC Clients to pull data
from DMZ.
Integrates with all historians and databases.
Configurable data encryption.
OPC UA compatible.

MatrikonOPC Security Gateway
MatrikonOPC Security Gateway secures all real-time OPC architectures. Unlike
OPC
solutions that rely only on DCOM security, Security Gateway controls who can
browse,
add, read and/or writesp; &nb to a tag on a per-user-per tag basis on any
OPC DA server.
Fully standards-based for maximum compatibility, the Security
Gateway implements
the OPC Foundation’s OPC Security specification.

MatrikonOPC HistoryLink
The MatrikonOPC HistoryLink is built upon the MatrikonOPC UA
Tunnelling
technology. HistoryLink enables two OPC HDA capable process
historians to
share historical data. HistoryLink can move data on an ongoing
schedule
(ScheduleLink), or be triggered via some process variable
(MonitorLink).
Historical data management has never been easier. HistoryLink
is also iC!
Enabled, thus remote configuration is possible.

MatrikonOPC Buffer is an off the shelf solution for remote
data collection,
buffering, and with the optional History-Link module; historical
data transfer
to a central process historian. This product is great for engineers
and project
managers who need guaranteed data collection and delivery from
geographically remote sites.
