Eaton, a leading power management company, has launched its next-generation Tofino industrial security solution: the 9202-ETS MTL system. This advanced security platform is designed to deliver top-tier network protection for process automation environments. Unlike other systems, the MTL Tofino is easy to install and comes with the latest configuration software, ensuring robust defense against network vulnerabilities. It safeguards plants from external cyber threats while also improving uptime and operational availability.
Roger Highton, Eaton’s Product Line Manager, emphasized that as industrial control and SCADA systems become more connected, they face growing risks from cyber attacks. "Traditional firewalls are not built for industrial environments or control systems," he explained. "They can’t effectively defend against modern threats, which can lead to massive financial losses in critical infrastructure." The 9202-ETS MTL offers an efficient, cost-effective security solution tailored for industries like power, utilities, oil and gas, and water treatment.
The system features a Firewall Loadable Security Module (LSM) that analyzes network traffic based on predefined rules and supports all major industrial protocols. A new EtherNet/IP Enforcer LSM allows deep packet inspection of CIP communications, while remote configuration via Tofino and Netconnect LSM adds flexibility. Additional modules, such as Modbus and OPC monitors, enhance protocol-specific security. An event logger LSM tracks security events and sends alerts, giving users full visibility and control.
The 9202-ETS MTL acts as a stealth device, operating without an IP address to avoid detection by potential attackers. It protects DCS, PLC, SCADA, and other automation systems without disrupting critical processes. Installation is simplified through pre-configured templates for various automation protocols, along with rule sets and test patterns to ensure smooth operation during setup.
Tofino also includes a Configurator tool that checks for invalid or missing rules, helping users avoid configuration errors. The device is rugged and suitable for harsh environments, with a metal housing ideal for DIN rail mounting. It meets Class 1 Division 2 and ATEX Zone 2 standards, with operating temperatures ranging from -40°C to +70°C, making it reliable in extreme conditions.
Eaton’s product portfolio extends beyond security solutions, offering a wide range of cable accessories, housings, lighting, signals, and electronic components designed for demanding environments. These products serve industries such as mining, energy, solar, and infrastructure.
Eaton is a global leader in power management, providing innovative solutions for electrical, hydraulic, and mechanical systems. With over $22.6 billion in sales in 2014, the company employs around 103,000 people and serves customers in 175 countries. Its mission is to deliver sustainable, safe, and efficient power management solutions that meet the evolving needs of today’s industries.
