Three incorrect password entries will result in a 3-hour lock out of password entry. Power cycle will allow subsequent password attempts.\n\nWhile automation networks and systems have built-in password protection schemes, this is only one step in securing the affected systems. Automation control system networks must incorporate data protection and security measures at least as robust as a typical business computer system. AutomationDirect recommends users of PLCs, HMI products, and other SCADA system products perform independent network security analysis to determine the proper level of security required for the application.\n\nAutomationDirect has identified the specific mitigation actions listed below:\n\nSecure physical access.\nIsolate and air gap networks when possible.\nConsider some of the AutomationDirect newer PLC families."
