Encrypted Data Transfer¶
The device supports encrypted data transfer to the DataPlatform in accordance with the TLS standard (Transport Layer Security).
TLS encryption is enabled by default upon delivery, and after a device reset to factory settings. No user intervention is required to activate encryption.
Note
Using data encryption is considered a cybersecurity best practice. Proemion strongly recommends keeping encryption enabled at all times.
Technical Details¶
The variables required belong to the DEVICE VARIABLES object dictionary group.
| Variable | Function |
|---|---|
| ENABLE ENCRYPTED DATA TRANSFER | 1 = enable encrypted data transfer |
| REMOTE SERVER PORT | 61200 = port for encrypted data transfer |
TLS encryption is mandatory. The ENABLE ENCRYPTED DATA TRANSFER variable can only be set to 1 (enable TLS); any attempt to set it to 0 is invalid.
Note
Encrypted data transmission may be prohibited in some countries. Please observe local regulations on encrypted data transfer.
