To operate a plant or machine safely, it is also necessary to employ suitable protection
measures (e.g. cell protection concept), and automation and drive components in an
integrated IT security concept for the entire plant or machine that correspond to the latest
state of technology. The products of other manufacturers need to be taken into consideration
if they are also used. Additional information is available at: Industrial Security
