Abstract
A security device includes one or more processors and a memory that includes instructions, that when executed by the processors, cause the processors to perform operations. The operations include monitoring data traffic between industrial automation devices in an industrial system and one or more devices in an external network, determining that a first industrial automation device does not include native security features for receiving secure data from the devices in the external network or transmitting secure data to the devices in the external network, and implementing one or more security techniques in response to determining that the first industrial automation device does not include the native security features.
