RUBIDEX™ hardware devices were designed for ease of placement within existing SCADA implementations as well as new industrial control system deployments. To address cloud-based connectivity and data collection in existing SCADA net- works, the RUBIDEX™ Controller Gateway was engineered. This gateway provides secure remote read and write capabilities with existing SCADA controllers via Modbus protocol.
Other communications bus protocols such as BACNet and ProfiNet are in active development. Rubidex is also developing a series of flexible hardware based SCADA Master Controllers that add port expandability, edge processing and machine learning capabilities. These Controller Gateways and Master Controllers can be deployed individually or in multiples, and can co-exist with legacy SCADA.
RG-350M SCADA GATEWAY
In operation, the RG-350M performs data collection, store & forward, and wireless data transmission as part of a secure distributed SCADA processing cluster.
In the RUBIDEX™ Secure SCADA architecture, data collected and transmitted never exists in an unencrypted form. Within the SCADA network the data is redundantly stored across multiple connected RUBIDEX™ SCADA Controllers and cloud-based servers if connected to the Internet.
Data stored internally and in the cloud acts like a traditional database but operates as a block chain thus gaining the protection of decentralized data storage impervious to ransomware, sequel injections, brute force attacks schemes.
• 12-30 VAC/VDC power supply. • RS-485 ModBus/BACNet Connectivity • Serial RS-232 Connectivity • Advanced power management • Operation from -40...+70 °C (-40...+158 °F) • Cost-effective, compact form factor
RGC-1027 SECURE GATEWAY CONTROLLER
In operation, the RGC-1027 performs data collection, data processing/controls, and data storage as part of a secure distributed processing cluster communicating and validating every process according to internal consensus algorithms to attest device identity and to validate command/control instructions.
Data collected and transmitted never exists in an unencrypted form. Within the SCADA network the data is redundantly stored across other connected RGC-1027 controllers and cloud-based servers if connected to the Internet. This structure functions like a database but operates as a block chain thus gaining the protection of decentralized data storage impervious to ransomware, sequel injections, brute force attacks schemes.
