IS CLOUD PLM SOFTWARE SECURE?

IS CLOUD PLM SOFTWARE SECURE?

Cybersecurity Day (November 30) each year is an occasion to commemorate and raise awareness about information security, while reminding us to protect our valuable information assets from potential cybercrime threats. So, is your Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software secure in the cloud?

Secure Software for Product Data Management

Today, companies are storing and managing valuable product information on PLM systems and other datasets in the cloud. These assets include intellectual property (IP) such as CAD designs, material data, and tooling information. This represents strategic business value for enterprises. Changes in the business landscape require continuous connectivity and device usage, while cybersecurity challenges continue to increase.

In this context, concerns about intellectual property leakage from cloud-based PLM systems are understandable. However, security measures and regulatory controls can be implemented to eliminate such security threats. With Siemens Teamcenter X, we understand your enterprise’s security and compliance requirements.

Rapid-start PLM solutions such as Teamcenter X have become essential for many organizations to securely store and manage their product information and processes throughout the entire product lifecycle.

Cloud PLM Software Security

Teamcenter X implements leading security policies and controls along with best practices in operations, governance, and compliance to protect your valuable intellectual property from both internal and external cyber threats. These policies help you achieve the highest level of data security and minimize legal, financial, and business risks caused by unsafe or non-compliant activities.

AWS Cloud is a proven and validated platform that provides strict security and compliance controls for mission-critical applications. Recently, AWS Cloud secured an agreement with United Kingdom intelligence agencies to host top-secret intelligence data within its cloud services.

Teamcenter X is deployed on AWS Cloud in accordance with global standards for security, privacy, compliance, transparency, and availability. Below are some of the key security measures in Teamcenter X that help us establish highly secure PLM systems for enterprises.

Teamcenter X currently supports up to 440 security controls deployed across different scenarios, from commercial to government and defense security environments.

In addition, Teamcenter X is secured by design and developed based on Siemens Corporate Product & Solution Security standards. These standards are based on the Information Security Management System (IEC 27001), Application Security (IEC 27034), Cybersecurity (IEC 62443), and the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP). Teamcenter testing methodologies comply with OWASP Level 2 standards, with continuous internal penetration testing and a six-month cadence for third-party penetration testing.
