BACnet Secure Connect (BACnet/SC)

BACnet Secure Connect (BACnet/SC) is a next-generation BACnet communication standard designed to improve cybersecurity by using modern IT security technologies, including TLS 1.3, for encrypted and authenticated communications.

BACnet/SC replaces traditional broadcast-based discovery with a secure, hub-and-spoke architecture, making it well suited for enterprise and cloud-connected building automation environments. MultiTech aligns with this security-first direction by delivering edge gateways and connectivity solutions designed to integrate safely within modern IP networks.

When MultiTech gateways expose IoT sensor data into BACnet environments, they support secure, standards-based communication models that complement BACnet/SC architectures.

This enables partners and building owners to extend automation systems with wireless IoT sensing while maintaining strong security posture, network segmentation, and compliance with evolving BACnet cybersecurity best practices.
