Cimetrics is today announcing the release of the first product of the much anticipated Secured by Cimetrics™ line (SbC), to bring holistic cybersecurity to BACnet systems.
BACstacTM release 7.5 brings critical security features to enable OEM vendors to start implementing secure BACnet products today that adhere to the new BACnet Secure Connect (BACnet/SC) data link standard while preparing for Managed BACnet framework in the future. BACstacTM, the industry-leading BACnet protocol stack, is used by many of OEM vendors globally.
The Secured by Cimetrics vision is to enable BACnet-based BAS systems to be interoperable, secure, and easy to install while providing both BAS and IT professionals with the tools and products they need to guard against cyber attacks. Developed in collaboration with leading industry players, this initiative is now branded as Managed BACnet (see managedbacnet.org) and provides the BAS industry a path to implement IT standards, technologies, and best practices in order to fully manage BACnet systems as part of today’s secure IT infrastructure.
“BACstacTM 7.5 is a major release for Cimetrics and the industry”, said Jim Lee, President and co-founder of Cimetrics, Inc. Lee continues “We are humbled by the support from industry to our cybersecurity vision, and very much looking forward to continuing helping OEMs, engineers, and installers develop and deploy the best security solutions today and in the future”.
