Hi,

I am working on a project for a multi-national company. Currently we have 250 devices (embedded PC's) that we monitor remotely. This has been forecast to increase to 1000 devices by the end of next year.

I like the idea of Whzan and can see many uses for it where time critical monitoring is not required. I have a specific project at the moment where it could be used.

However I am concerned about security. Can the Whzan gateways be modified to communicate to the Whzan server via port 443 rather than port 80? i.e. A secure connection?

When sending out confidential data concerning industrial processes security is paramount. It is always a struggle when we sell a new remote monitoring system to convince the corporate IT depts to allow it on their network.

Hi Tim,

We're just beginning the rollout of the secured versions of all our systems now - half of the gateways now run over a secured connection and the rest will be complete within the next week or so, and hopefully the entire system will run over https within another month.

Please do let me know how you get on with Whzan and don't hesitate to get in touch if there's anything to help.

Ben.
