More ruggedised construction, increased bandwidth, and role-based access provide users with increased performance and more granular access control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manufacturers need to secure their networks without complexity that would otherwise add administrative overhead to already busy operations teams. Emerson&#8217;s NextGen Smart Firewall features a user-friendly HTML5 web-based user interface, easy to understand setup menus, and pre-defined DeltaV application rules. The ease of use helps DeltaV administrators and control engineers with no security or information technology (IT) expertise create secure connections for DeltaV applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;A critical element of Emerson&#8217;s vision of boundless automation architecture is secure connectivity between systems in the plant and across the enterprise,&#8221; said Claudio Fayad, vice president of technology for Emerson&#8217;s process systems and solutions business. &#8220;Emerson&#8217;s NextGen Smart Firewall delivers intuitive setup and interfaces to provide plants with access to a much wider array of technologies\u2014from control, to reliability, to sustainability and more\u2014without the need to maintain a dedicated IT presence.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gigabit connections support improved performance for applications that require higher bandwidth.
