Smart data, smart business: Solutions for a sustainable and future-proof industry.
In a modern All Electric Society, data-driven sustainability strategies help companies optimize resource consumption, improve inefficient processes, reduce failures, and plan maintenance effectively. This boosts efficiency, cuts costs, and ensures regulatory compliance. Additionally, sustainable business models attract customers, investors, and partners, enhancing competitive advantage and positioning companies as industry leaders.
Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity can help promote environmental sustainability, which is an important goal for many of the SDGs. For example, cybersecurity can be used to protect critical infrastructure, such as energy and water, from cyberattacks that could cause environmental damage.
360° cybersecurity

360° cybersecurity is the basis for secure and reliable production in Industry 4.0. Increasingly growing production networks, more stringent legal requirements, and networking within and across production boundaries underline the necessity of a holistic cybersecurity approach in accordance with IEC 62443 in the factory. This includes compliance with laws and regulations such as NIS 2.0 and a local adaptation expected in the next two years.
PLCnext Technology – the open ecosystem for limitless automation
The PLCnext Technology ecosystem combines the classic PLC world with the flexibility and openness of new technologies, thus enabling the rapid and efficient development of complex and sustainable applications. The system consists of open hardware, modular engineering software, a global community, and a digital software marketplace.

Network switches
As reliance on networking infrastructure grows, so does the need to advance sustainability in business practices and technologies. With the intent of progressing toward a more sustainable future, organizations can benefit from designing storage area networks (SANs) that are not only secure, high performance and reliable, but also with less impact on the planet.
