  • MitigationDAQFactory Developercisa_csaf_ot

    AzeoTech recommends that users take one of the following steps to secure their systems: Upgrade to Version 5.85 (Build 1842), which addresses this vulnerability by adding authentication, and changes default settings to disable both the networking feature and also the remote reboot and shutdown feature. Users can download Version 5.85 at: (http://www.azeotech.com/downloads.php). For versions older than Version 5.85, disable the DAQFactory networking feature if the system configuration does not require network support. Users can check the “Disable Broadcast” option in the “File - Document Settings” menu. AzeoTech recommends that DAQFactory only be deployed on an isolated network when one of the above mitigation steps cannot be performed.
