Security Recommendations for Commissioning

Secure Communications with Wireless Devices

The wireless communications are secured by a cryptographic mechanism supporting the integrity and confidentiality of data exchanged through the wireless network.

Once the pairing is performed, it is recommended to periodically verify the list of paired devices configured in the Wireless Panel Server by using EcoStruxure Power Commission App and make sure that the list of devices is up to date and contains no unexpected or rogue devices.

Tamper-Indicating Labels

The Wireless Panel Server has one tamper-indicating label which helps protect the device physical security. It must be clean and shows no sign of tampering (for example, rips, tears, or scratches). Schneider Electric advises against using a device that has visibly been tampered with.

Installation

To help protect the device physical security, the following installation is advised:

• Install the Wireless Panel Server in a PrismaSeT Active switchboard that is secured in a manner appropriate to the risk level of your installation (for example, a PrismaSeT Active switchboard with padlock or a key).

• Install the PrismaSeT Active switchboard with embedded Wireless Panel Server in a secured room (for example, with locked door or camera).
