Simple & Secure BAS Solutions

Protect Your Building Automation System from Cyber Threats

Purple Flower

Remote access is essential for today’s facility managers, contractors, and technicians. It allows for real-time monitoring, troubleshooting, and system updates—saving time and reducing costs. But with convenience comes risk. Unsecured remote access can leave your Building Automation System (BAS) vulnerable to cyberattacks, operational disruptions, and compliance issues.

The Problem: BAS Remote Access is Often Unsecured

Many BAS professionals still rely on outdated or insecure remote access methods, such as:

  • Default passwords that are never changed, leaving systems vulnerable to attacks.
  • Open VPNs with broad access, increasing exposure to potential breaches.
  • Port forwarding that creates easy entry points for cybercriminals.
  • Weak encryption or lack of authentication, making it easy for unauthorized users to gain control.
Why it matters: These issues don’t just pose a security risk—they can lead to downtime, operational disruptions, and compliance headaches. That’s why it’s crucial to carry out a secure, scalable, and easy-to-deploy remote access solution!

The Solution: Veridify and Tosibox

There are two industry-leading solutions to simplify and secure remote connectivity
for BAS professionals:

Veridify takes a Zero Trust approach, ensuring that every access request is verified before granting permission. Key benefits include:

  • Device-Level Security: Protects individual BAS controllers and edge devices.
  • Mutual Authentication: Ensures only trusted devices and users can connect.
  • Real-Time Monitoring: Provides visibility into who is accessing the system and when.
  • No VPN Required: Eliminates traditional VPN vulnerabilities.
Veridify is ideal for companies looking for lightweight, yet robust, cybersecurity solutions that comply with modern industry standards.
Tosibox is known for its simple yet powerful approach to remote connectivity. Its key features include:

  • Hardware-Based Security: Uses a physical Tosibox Key to create an encrypted connection.
  • Automatic Network Creation: Devices connect instantly with no complex IT setup.
  • Scalable Access Management: Easily control who gets access to what, with tiered permissions.
  • Fast Deployment: Set up secure remote access in minutes, not hours or days.
Tosibox is perfect for contractors, service providers, and facility managers who need a user-friendly and highly secure remote access solution without extensive IT support.
