Hardening

Recommendations to optimize cybersecurity in a protected environment:

  • Harden the meter according to your company policies and standards.

  • Review assumptions about protected environments and address potential risks and mitigation strategies.

  • Change the default passwords/passcodes (Refer to Configuring the display passcode and Changing user account password).

  • Enable the HMI timeout period in webpages (Refer to Enabling the HMI timeout period).

  • Terminate the user account sessions in webpages (Refer to Terminating user account sessions).

  • Least functionality can be applied to prohibit and restrict the use of unnecessary functions, protocols and/or services.

  • Change the communication protocol ports from their default values. This lowers the predictability of port use.

  • Disable communication protocol ports when they are not in use. This reduces the attack surface.
