All,
Following this week with the Sasser virus we had to shut out plant down as out process control work stations, Rockwell's RSView32 and RSViewSE terminals were infected. Currently all the PLC's at my plant and RSView terminals are connected on the same network as the business network. The RSview terminals are connected no differently as a normal desktop PC network connection. Following the downtime caused this week due to this virus I have been asked to separate the two networks. However there are some applications that need to access the business network such as SQL queries. I am no IT expert and want to know is there is a way of some how adding additional security to the network so these terminals are separated from normal network traffic but still allow certain applications be allowed to pass through the network?
Thanks,
Kim
