10. Motivation for brownfield connection
Discover the value of your data
Easy mechanisms to capture and monitor machine data
Need for transparency
Transparency is key to enable optimization potential
Ready for cloud-based solutions
Cloud applications require data from the shop floor
Affordable connectivity concepts are needed for brown-field machines
Data acquisition and aggregation in standardized formats to enable performance optimization programs
Optimize performance
Usage of plant IT systems
Plant IT systems require standardized data from the field to calculate KPIs
Easy connection of machines with diverse automation systems and concepts
Reduce complexity
Data acquisition from brownfield machinery is mandatory
in the environment of Industry 4.0

18. Sicherheitsinformationen
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks. In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept. Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place. Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into account. For more information about industrial security, please visit Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure. Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported, and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats. To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS Feed under
