can be downloaded from the following page:
http://compatibility.rockwellautomation.com/Pages/MultiProductDownload.aspx
famID=15
Rockwell Automation recommends users apply the following general guidelines:
o Utilize proper network infrastructure controls, such as firewalls, to help
ensure that requests from unauthorized sources are blocked and the controls
are isolated from the business network.
o Block all traffic to EtherNet/IP, or other CIP protocol-based devices, from
outside the manufacturing zone by blocking or restricting access to TCP and
UDP Port 2222 and Port 44818 using proper network infrastructure controls,
such as firewalls, UTM devices, or other security appliances. For more
information on TCP/UDP ports used by Rockwell Automation Products, see
Knowledgebase Article ID 898270.
o Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems,
and ensure that they are not accessible from the Internet
o When remote access is required, use secure methods, such as virtual private
networks (VPNs), recognizing that VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should
be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize that VPN
is only as secure as the connected devices.

NCCIC recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of
exploitation of this vulnerability. Specifically, users should:
o Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems,
and ensure that they are not accessible from the Internet .
o Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls, and
isolate them from the business network.
o When remote access is required, use secure methods, such as Virtual Private
Networks (VPNs), recognizing that VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should
be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize that VPN
is only as secure as the connected devices.
NCCIC reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk
assessment prior to deploying defensive measures.
NCCIC also provides a section for control systems security recommended
practices on the ICS-CERT web page. Several recommended practices are available
for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems
Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies .
Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available
