An industrial Ethernet network can have more than 1,000 nodes, hundreds of cables and infinite combinations of switches, bridges, routers, network interface cards and servers. When starting a new project, it is not always easy to know which Ethernet switch is the best choice. There are some requirements to consider before narrowing your search for […]
The ability to remotely access a machine’s control system can help troubleshoot and resolve the majority of problems encountered, avoiding the need for technicians or engineers to travel to the site. These problems can often be solved not so much by fixing the machine but by adjusting its programming and parameters. Adjustments are generally required […]

As more OT and IT networks converge, there are several attack surfaces emerging in industrial control systems. Some are known vulnerabilities, but there are also some that are unknown. That’s why it’s important that everyone from management to individual users join forces to support industrial cybersecurity from the edge to the cloud. Here are 5 […]
Terra Ferma, Moxa, and MSI TEC extended IT communications from the corporate offices out to the most remote and harsh industrial environments the oil and gas industries have to face. Terra Ferma was challenged with bringing remote video surveillance and data acquisition to multiple wellheads scattered throughout the cold, harsh Rocky Mountains of the Central […]
The Industrial IoT is bringing new growth opportunities to businesses who are investing in the proper networking infrastructure. While the Industrial IoT movement is in its early stages, there are advantages to investing in connectivity and security measures now, no matter the industry or application. Typically businesses that migrate over to the Industrial IoT experience: […]
The Internet of Things or the IoT is a network of things, objects, and devices that are embedded with software, sensors, and other technologies that connect and exchange data over the internet. This includes every day devices like fitness trackers, smart appliances, robot vacuums, bathroom scales, tooth brushes and more. The insights from the data […]
Simplify Transformation of Your IIoT Systems We make it easy to transport your OT data to the digital highway with advanced IIoT gateways and long-term support. Contact Us Transport your OT data to the digital highway. Networks serve as the bridge in a connected industrial system. For data to get from one point to another, […]
IIoT gateways act as a gate or bridge between OT devices and the cloud in IoT and IIoT applications. Since they often need to process the bulk of ingress and egress data, they are more exposed to cybersecurity threats than other devices. For this reason, it is extremely important to keep your IIoT gateway software […]
Moxa’s EDR-G9010 secure routers now feature industrial intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS) to protect manufacturing and critical infrastructure from cyber attacks.
