TÜViT audited the first ISA/IEC 62443 MYNXG Secure IoT Platform

“MYNXG is working with US and UK customers that require ISA/IEC 62443 cyber security certifications. Security is the key to connect the operation technology via 4G / 5G networks. MYNXG as the technology leader with a highly innovative security portfolio, offering SPC solutions, the Blockchain and the bare metal Cloud Technology wanted security auditors to validate the technology. MYNXG is setting the standard and is working according to Kerckhoff’s principle that all algorithms and methods are open and only keys must be stored confidentially. I am happy to have found a partner like the experienced auditors at TÜViT that challenged and validated our solutions”, said Bernd Moeller CEO MYNXG.

“For MYNXG the IT-secure development of Industry 4.0 products, their integration and operation is a primary business objective. This also reflects the implementation of IEC 62443 in the certification strategy”, underlines Christian Freckmann, Head of Business Security & Privacy at TÜViT. To take into account, the idea of Industry 4.0 not only functionally, but also regarding state-of-the-art security and thus the secure operation of Industry 4.0 industrial plants, MYNXG has decided to implement the internationally recognized and common cyber security standard ISA/IEC 62443 almost completely. The auditing (TÜViT) and certification (TÜV NORD CERT) were carried out by the TÜV NORD GROUP.

The MYNXG Smallest Possible Cell (SPC) is a revolutionary concept offering fully integrated secure automation solutions for PLC, Process, and Access Automation. SPC devices are secured by design and contain trusted platform module (TPM) based security. SPC are communicating via encrypted data with the MYNXG Cloud. Together, this creates an end-to-end protection for both devices and their data, capable to meet all cyber security aspects of the ISA/IEC 62443. The MYNXG Cloud Technology is protected by hardware security modules (HSM). All data aggregated by the SPC are stored encrypted at rest.

MYNXG Cloud is own cloud bare metal technology made and designed in Nuremberg / Germany. It is hosted at MYXNG, at the data center of your choice, or at the customer premises. MYNXG cloud technology differentiates here from other solutions at the market that offer re-packaged US Hyper Scaler Technology. MYNXG is the technology of choice to protect your data, know-how and business.

MYNXG OT Cloud and Smallest Possible Cell solution comes with secure administration tools to manage your OT like IT technology. Configurable dashboards create digital twins.
