About Plant SCADA Access Anywhere

Plant SCADA Access Anywhere enables you to remotely access a running Plant SCADA client with a mobile device including tablets and smartphones, and laptop computers.

You can view and control the client through a web browser without needing to install it on your portable device. You can interact with the Plant SCADA client from anywhere in real-time.

Plant SCADA Access Anywhere provides the following features:

• Provides user access and interaction with Plant SCADA clients from any device that has an HTML5-compatible web browser (see Supported Browsers).

• Provides access without the need to install, configure, update, or patch any software on a portable device.

• Works on platforms that support only web applications such as the Google Chrome operating system.

Plant SCADA Access Anywhere Secure Gateway provides the following alternative functions with Access Anywhere Server:

• Provides access without the need to purchase, install, configure, and manage a VPN.

• Accesses internal resources using a single Secure Gateway that is installed in a perimeter network, while other resources reside securely behind an internal firewall.

• Installs a single Secure Socket Layer (SSL) digital certificate on the Secure Gateway node instead of installing on every host that needs to be accessed.
