HOW DOES IT WORK?

Remote Access is delivered through a standalone app or the Ardexa Digital Control Platform.

A secure point-to-point connection is established between the user and the on-site edge device.

CONNECTION

Using Public Key Infrastructure, Ardexa enables rapid data transfer to any device, IP address or port.
A cybersecure and preconfigured application means connections are a simple self-managed task.

COMMUNICATION METHODS

  • TLS 1.3 (Tunnel) and WireGuard (VPN) used as a standard
  • Device connection automatically terminated at end of the session
  • A secure gateway for access to a single machine
  • Tightly control third party machine access
  • Greatly reduces the risks of malware
  • Allows secure access to the entire plant network
  • Tunnel is preferred to VPN for greater security
