Introduction

The EDR-G9004 Series is a set of highly integrated industrial multi-port secure routers with firewall/NAT/VPN functions. These devices are designed for Ethernet-based security applications in critical remote control or monitoring networks. These secure routers provide an electronic security perimeter to protect critical cyber assets including substations in power applications, pump-and-treat systems in water stations, distributed control systems in oil and gas applications, and PLC/SCADA systems in factory automation. Furthermore, with the addition of IDS/IPS, the EDR-G9004 Series is an industrial next-generation firewall, equipped with threat detection and prevention capabilities to further protect critical infrastructure from cybersecurity attacks.

Defend Against Malicious Threats With Advanced Cybersecurity Features

The EDR-G9004 Series’ embedded firewall uses policy rules to control network traffic between trusted zones while Network Address Translation (NAT) shields the internal network from unauthorized access by outside hosts. The Virtual Private Networking (VPN) functionality further provides users with secure communication tunnels when accessing the private network from the public Internet. To help protect your OT assets from cyberattacks, the EDR-G9004 Series supports Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to examine the data portion of network packets for various OT-specific protocols.

Simplify Configurations With the User-friendly Interface and Quick Settings

The EDR-G9004 Series’ Setup Wizard provides an easy way for users to set up DMZ ports to create a secure network buffer zone in just three steps. In addition, the object-based firewall management feature gives engineers a simple way to configure and maintain firewall filtering for IP addresses and subnets, network services, industrial application services, and user-defined services.

Industrial-grade Design to Ensure Uninterrupted Network Connectivity

The EDR-G9004 Series’ rugged hardware makes these secure routers ideal for harsh industrial environments, featuring wide-temperature models that are built to operate reliably in hazardous conditions and extreme temperatures of -40 up to 75°C. Moreover, the EDR-G9004 Series supports WAN, Layer 3 redundancy mechanisms, and Gen3 LAN Bypass fault tolerance to ensure that your network stays connected at all times.

Virtual Patching and Intelligent Threat Protection

Patching remains a major challenge in OT environments because OT applications cannot afford interrupting operations by shutting down systems to apply patches. Virtual patching technology can help complement existing patch management processes by shielding known and unknown vulnerabilities. In addition, the EDR-G9004 features intelligent IPS functionality for continuous protection against cyberthreats which uses pattern-based detection to identify and block known attacks.
