Layer 2 Firewalls in Industrial Networks

This video emphasises the critical importance of Layer 2 firewalls in securing existing industrial automation networks. With increasing cyber threats, network security has become a pressing concern. Layer 2 firewalls offer defence-in-depth by segmenting the network, efficiently filtering traffic based on MAC addresses, and transparently protecting diverse industrial protocols. These firewalls provide an additional layer of security to safeguard critical assets, ensuring resilient and secure industrial operations in today's fast-paced automation landscape.
