RAGERSEC
In development · Early access from 2027

The firewall that knows what a PLC stop is.

RagerSec is an OT-native firewall for Siemens plants. It reads S7comm, S7CommPlus and OPC UA down to the function level and only lets through the access your process actually needs.

Write access from the engineering station is only allowed during an approved maintenance window.
The problem

Port 102 open means everything is open.

With Siemens controllers, conventional firewalls only see TCP port 102. Whether an HMI is reading a value or someone is stopping the CPU stays invisible.

IT firewall

  • Rules based on IP and port only
  • Read, write, stop and program download look the same
  • No visibility into data blocks or OPC UA nodes

RagerSec

  • Rules per protocol function, e.g. “read only on DB12”
  • CPU stop and block download blocked by default
  • Time-limited approvals for maintenance windows
Features

Built for plants, not office networks.

DPI

Deep packet inspection

Decodes S7comm, S7CommPlus and OPC UA down to the individual function and address.

Allowlist

Learning mode

Records normal traffic and proposes a rule set for you to review and approve.

Bridge

Transparent deployment

Runs as a layer 2 bridge. No new IP addresses, no changes to the PLC configuration.

Maintenance

Maintenance windows

Program changes only after approval and only for a defined period.

Syslog

Traceable

Every decision is logged and can be forwarded to your SIEM or OT monitoring.

62443

Zones and conduits

Technically enforces the zone boundary according to IEC 62443-3-3.

Deployment

Between supervisory level and cell.

RagerSec sits at the boundary between two zones and checks every access to the controllers.

Looking for pilot sites

We are looking for operators and system integrators running S7-300/400 or S7-1200/1500 plants to test RagerSec in our early access program.
