How Does Ethernet APL Affect Cybersecurity?
In this edition of the ARC Digital Transformation Podcast, we talk to Grant Vanderbrake and Arnold Offner from Phoenix Contact about a new technology called Ethernet APL (Advanced Physical Layer), which essentially brings Ethernet technology to the field device level at the physical networking layer. Ethernet APL is a great technology, and every major process automation vendor seems to be supporting it, but what about the cybersecurity implications associated with it? This podcast goes into the details of Ethernet APL and security, what users need to know, and how this technology could actually make OT security much more effective.
