OVERVIEW

The Tofino™ Industrial Security System is a new and unique, solution from MTL and Byres Security
that addresses the important issue of protecting Industrial Networks from modern cyber-security
attacks.

Simple to Install

The conventional approach is to employ a standard, but highly complex, “IT-style” firewall. Such
methods are complicated and require highly-trained staff to install and manage them. Tofino™ was
designed with its environment, the level of staffing and the needs of industry in mind. As a result, a
field technician can simply attach power to a Tofino™ appliance, connect two network cables and
then walk away – it’s that simple to install.

Centralised Control

From there, the company security staff can sit at a central management platform (CMP) and
configure and monitor any system with ease, reacting to threats in a coordinated and company-wide
manner. Best of all, the system has the flexibility to adapt to a small plant with a single PLC, or meet
the needs of a multi-national organization with thousands of critical devices scattered around the
globe.

Defence-in-Depth

By deploying Tofino™ security appliances directly in front of each control device (or group of
devices) that needs protection, they provide SCADA and process control companies with a layered
security solution for their systems. This in turn allows a “defence-in-depth” strategy to be used, so
if a hacker or virus penetrates or bypasses a main corporate firewall, they will still be faced with an
array of SCADA-focused security devices that need to be breached before any damage can be done.
