- SINEC Security Guard: Intuitive cloud-based software-as-a-service to improve cybersecurity on the shop floor
- Allows users to match vulnerabilities to their OT assets, prioritize them and engage in mitigation measures
- Integration with the cloud-native SIEM Microsoft Sentinel enabled
- Available on the Siemens Xcelerator Marketplace from July 2024
Production facilities are increasingly the
target of cyberattacks. Industrial companies are therefore required to identify
and close potential vulnerabilities in their systems.
To address the need to identify cybersecurity
vulnerabilities on the shop floor as quickly as possible, Siemens has launched a
new cybersecurity software-as-a-service, that will be showcased for the first
time at Hannover Messe 2024.
- Siemens leverages BILT on Apple Vision Pro to provide immersive step-by-step guided instruction for electricians
- BILT becomes newest Siemens Xcelerator Ecosystem partner
- BILT spatial computing app on Apple Vision Pro available at Hannover Messe tradeshow
Siemens and BILT, the creators of 3D Intelligent
Instructions, are optimizing their mobile guides into spatial models for Apple
Vision Pro. As the need for skilled electricians and other trades grows,
training the entering workforce, while up-skilling the existing one, is
essential. Tools such as BILT on Apple Vision Pro provide a highly immersive
and visual training experience that helps users not only learn faster, but
safer.
- More than €100 million investment for new Siemens Technology Center in
Garching strengthens cutting-edge research and bolsters Germany’sinnovation strength
- Open research and innovation ecosystem fosters collaboration with the
Technical University of Munich (TUM), international research institutes and
leading companies
- Building complex meets the highest sustainability standards
- Focus on industrial artificial intelligence research supports Siemens’
leading position
Today, Siemens has opened the first building complex of the Siemens Technology
Center (STC) at Garching Research Campus, north of Munich, Germany. In addition
to Siemens, other institutions next to the Technical University of Munich (TUM),
such as the Max Planck Institute and SAP, are located there, with around 28,000
people working at this hub. As a result, the Garching Research Campus is one of

- First cross-country project in the Middle East and Arab World connecting
the Emirati capital Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates to Sohar in the
Sultanate of Oman; length of 303km
- The Oman section of the network marks the first railway system to be
delivered in history of the Sultanate of Oman
Siemens Mobility, together with its consortium partner Hassan Allam Construction, is
honored to announce that it has been awarded the Abu Dhabi – Sohar Design and
Build Railway Systems and Integration contract by Oman – Etihad Rail, a joint
venture co-owned by the two countries to deliver this network. Siemens Mobility and
Hassan Allam Construction will deliver the design, build and integration of the ETCS
Level 2 signaling, telecom and power supply systems over the 303-kilometer-long
Abu Dhabi – Sohar railway link. The signaling solutions are state-of-the art and

Middle East and Arab world.
- Siemens makes automation easy with the first generative AI-powered product for engineering in an industrial environment
- Siemens Industrial Copilot accelerates the generation of complex automation code, reduces development times, and increases productivity
- TIA Portal connection offers customers SCL code generation, customization of HMI visualization, and document search in natural language
- Available for download from the Siemens Xcelerator marketplace starting in summer 2024
At Hannover Messe 2024, Siemens presents the first generative artificial intelligence (AI) product for engineering in an industrial environment. The Siemens Industrial Copilot, the generative AI-powered assistant, is now seamlessly connected to the Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) Portal. This will enable engineering teams to find the right help topic and to generate a basic visualization and code faster for programmable logic controllers (PLC). As a result, they will be able to significantly reduce their workload and offload repetitive tasks to the Siemens Industrial Copilot. In addition, the engineering of complex tasks will become less susceptible to errors. This in turn reduces development times and boosts quality and productivity over the long term. The Siemens Industrial Copilot for TIA Portal Engineering will be available for download from the Siemens Xcelerator marketplace starting in summer 2024.
