SAUTER Vision Center 8.1: Focus on security and ease of use

The latest version of SAUTER Vision Center (SVC) combines BACnet/SC Hub, 2-factor authentication and single sign-on. With optimised dashboard functions and even more flexible operating options, SVC 8.1 offers an efficient solution for the needs of today’s building operation.

 

SAUTER Vision Center (SVC) meets the demands of building operators for comprehensive building, energy and maintenance management. Thanks to its modular structure the web-based management tool, in the HTML5 standard, enables the operation, analysis and visualisation of building functions with maximum flexibility, regardless of location or system. The latest version, SVC 8.1, presents a joint approach to security and ease of use.

The highlights of SVC 8.1 include:

  1. BACnet/SC Hub: This function enables encrypted data transmission with full BACnet functionality for decentralised buildings and premises. The BACnet/SC protocol is used in the cloud solution (Vision Services) and can now also be used in the private cloud by local IT departments.
  2. 2FA and SSO: SVC 8.1 implements essential security requirements through the introduction of 2-factor authentication (2FA) and single sign-on (SSO). The combination of 2FA and SSO offers a balanced approach between security and usability.
  3. Optimised energy management: A new function enables the adjustment of a setpoint, such as the room temperature, for several objects at the same time. Additional functional enhancements facilitate the use of templates and charts, which optimises operation and set-up efficiency, especially in large-scale projects.

 

Version SVC 8.1 is available as of now. Please get in touch with our sales department.

SAUTER Head Office was the target of a cyber security incident on November 20, 2024. SAUTER’s IT department immediately activated, well defined, internal emergency plans. All IT systems were completely isolated and shut down to successfully prevent the attack from spreading. External cybersecurity experts and data forensics specialists then began to check all systems and restore them securely. This process is unfortunately time-consuming, but absolutely necessary to ensure that the cyber-attack does not continue at a later date.


The SAUTER websites have been affected by the emergency operation and are available again with immediate effect.


There are currently no concrete indications that our customers' infrastructures have been compromised in any way by SAUTER devices. It appears to be an opportunistic incident with no clearly recognisable long-term goals or systematic attacks. The situation does not currently suggest that there is a targeted, sustained threat to the affected systems.
