Data Security At Rest
Schneider Electric follows best practices to create a highly-secured solution and to limit the risk of data being compromised in any meaningful manner while protecting the privacy, control, and autonomy of each customer data independently from any other.
Our solution includes:
-
Customer information (PIM: password, email, profile) is stored and encrypted in a corporate Identity Management System (IMS).
-
System to system credentials and tokens are stored and encrypted in EcoStruxure Facility Expert databases located in the Microsoft Azure cloud.
-
Customer functional data including time-series is segregated logically in the EcoStruxure Facility Expert SQL database located in Microsoft Azure cloud.
-
Customer data is encrypted at rest in EcoStruxure Facility Expert databases.
Data Security In Motion
Schneider Electric with EcoStruxure Facility Expert implement best practices as:
-
All communications to and from EcoStruxure Facility Expert with internal Schneider Electric systems or external third-party systems, are encrypted using HTTPS (minimum level required is TLS 1.2).
-
Certificate involved in these encrypted sessions is leveraging SHA 256 secure hash algorithm.
-
This also applies to communications between our on-premises data loggers (Com'X, SE8000, Wireless Panel Server, EcoStruxure Panel Server) and Schneider Electric Cloud platform. Schneider Electric is continuously monitoring the changing security landscape of cryptography and cybersecurity to ensure that we offer the best available protections to our customers and their sensitive data.
