Common Industrial Protocol (CIP™) Security is an open-standard secure communication protocol developed by ODVA for EtherNet/IP™ communications, providing the final layer of defense for protection against malicious communication attacks.

CIP Security™ can play an important part of a defense in depth strategy, helping to fortify control system cybersecurity by providing data authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality by:

  • Using Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) cryptographic protocols providing secure transport of EtherNet/IP traffic
  • Using keyed-Hashed Message Authentication Code (HMAC) providing data integrity and message authenticity
  • Using X.509v3 Digital Certificates providing cryptographically secure identities to devices

Protection with Security

More than one-third of exploitation of inadvertent weaknesses involve Man in the Middle (MitM) attacks to steal information or change asset configurations. MitM attacks "intercept" communications to alter or steal information.

Understanding CIP Security

CIP Security enabled devices can play an important part in a defense in depth strategy. Watch this video showing how CIP Security works to make products more secure.


Deploying CIP Security within a Converged Plantwide Ethernet Architecture

Converged Plantwide Ethernet (CPwE) is a collection of architected, tested, and validated designs consisting of documented architectures, best practices, guidance, and configuration settings.

This document provides a comprehensive explanation of the CIP Security application design. It includes information about key requirements, possible deployment models, potential challenges, technology considerations, and guidelines for implementation and configuration of these specific use security cases.
