      • Authorization Concept
      • Certificates
      • Login
      • Login Framework

        The WinCC OA login framework provides a framework that is easy to extend. The WinCC OA login panels can be easily replaced by user-specific panels without having to re-implement the functionality.

      • Server Side Authentication
      • User-defined Login
      • Authentication via Kerberos, basics

        In a more and more networking world, a WinCC OA system could be exposed to different types of attacks. An unauthorized WinCC OA system could connect to the distribution manager or hackers could try to manipulate WinCC OA messages.
