Siemens AG extended its cybersecurity cooperation with Intel Corp.’s McAfee division as Europe’s largest engineering company leans more heavily on supplying industrial products with Web connectivity.
McAfee will help its partner improve so-called managed security services and provide the latest firewall protection against hackers, Munich-based Siemens said in a statement. In the wake of the Stuxnet computer virus, which attacked Siemens industrial controllers, McAfee agreed in 2011 to supply software that protected the German manufacturer’s products.
