ACT’L introduces Talk2M Internet access to machines



March 3, 2008 - Machine Builders and Infrastructure markets have, for many years, used Modem-to-Modem connections for remote access to devices and outstations. Today, the Internet offers exciting prospects for industry players but also brings more IT complexity. Talk2M makes things smarter.


Talk2M (stands for Talk to Machines) is an Internet Service designed to address the growing need for broadband and wireless access to perform remote maintenance & access distant equipments. The key added-value of Talk2M is the full integration of IT security standards by allowing an Internet communication tunnel between the user and the remote machine without any IT network security change on both sides! This major breakthrough allows easy deployment while hiding the complexity of the IT network infrastructure.

The Talk2M solution using GPRS/EDGE connection on the remote sites only requires standard national SIM cards - avoiding the use of dedicated international APN or dedicated SIM cards - and the connection via ADSL is straightforward.

The most powerful and innovative architecture with Talk2M is reached by using, at the remote site, the existing Ethernet LAN infrastructure with its Internet connection to make the remote device accessible from anywhere in the world by Internet. As a result, no extra dedicated telecom media are required.

Together with the eWON range of industrial modem-routers, Talk2M sheds new light on Internet remote access & maintenance, being compliant with a wide range of serial or Ethernet based PLCs: Siemens, Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric, Omron…

Designed with affordability in mind, Talk2M’s User Interface is your eWON address book and your single click access to your machines!

Durov: The phone of the richest man in the world was hacked through WhatsApp.

The founder of "VKontakte" and Telegram Pavel Durov said that back in November 2019 he warned about the vulnerability of the WhatsApp application, through which hackers hacked the smartphone of the richest man on the planet Jeff Bezos. Durov wrote about it in his Telegram-channel. Earlier, the company Facebook, which owns WhatsApp, noted that the businessman's mobile phone was hacked because of vulnerabilities in the operating system from Apple. At the same time, Durov is convinced that the problem is not iOS. " WhatsApp in its marketing campaign uses the words 'end-to-end encryption' as a magic spell, which itself should ensure the security of all communications. But this technology alone cannot guarantee absolute confidentiality," says the founder of Telegram. One of the drawbacks of end-to-end encryption, he says, is that backups of transmitted data are often not encrypted. In addition, says Durov, each application has "ways around...
