Netop Remote Access for Embedded Systems
Traditional remote control is based on the transfer of screen data and control over the remote keyboard and mouse allowing support personnel to assist the end user without having to make an on-site visit. But embedded systems outnumber PCs by at least five to one and the numbers are growing. The proliferation of remote access, compliance requirements, increasing threats and an expanding network perimeter is making system security and data privacy difficult to characterize and control. Security for embedded systems is often poorly defined, even while they handle crucial information.
Security. Connectivity. Compliance.

Supports your embedded systems without requirement for graphic user interface
Today, embedded systems are integrated in products like industrial units, robotics, computer electronics, POS-systems and gas pumps. These embedded systems can be deployed in diverse locations and utilized by non-technical staffs with limited skills to complete routine IT task.
Netop’s Secure Tunnel offers administrators and support personnel the ability to provide remote support and management of disparate systems without the need to transfer the screen data and interact with the keyboard and mouse as with traditional remote control solutions. It will improve your support and reduce costs.

Restrict access to applications and ports
Administrators can utilize communication paths (ports) tunneling into an operating system and communicate via the ports that are open. What data is seen on which ports can be specified and access can be restricted based on that rather than traditional user rights. This access right management increases your security and confidentiality.

Flexible connectivity options
Netop offers cross-platform connectivity and the ability to use one intuitive interface. The Secure Tunnel can be established from the Guest software running on Windows based operating systems and can establish a session with any Netop Host running on the supported versions of both Windows and Linux.
Netop is designed to work in the most complex environments and offers flexible connectivity options between Netop applications. Direct local connectivity can be achieved using the TCP or UDP connections with customizable ports as well as secure, internet-based connectivity using the Netop WebConnect solution.

Because security matters
No other company has more experience securing remote connections for businesses. Data transmitted can be encrypted using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) with key lengths up to 256-bits and 2048-bit dynamic key exchange using the Diffie-Hellman method. Furthermore Netop’s secure tunnel for remote application control offers three layers of security in terms of authentication of Guest, appropriate permission and documentation of the remote support session.
The solutions meets the most stringent regulatory requirements for PCI, HIPAA and FIPS as described in white papers located at www.netop.com/compliance

Protect your business
Where traditional remote control are often standard solutions used by IT-support/help desks, then Netop are experienced in supporting embedded Windows and Linux environments that have been stripped down to a minimum.
The Netop development team can cooperate directly with your engineering group or product management in the delivery of custom implementations needed. It can increase the value of your solutions, by allowing you or your customer access to maintain and support the final system at any locations.
