EcoStruxure Building

Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Building is an enterprise smart building management, IoT operational technology (OT), and facility cybersecurity platform engineered to optimize energy efficiency, building automation, and occupant comfort while protecting critical facility operations from cyber threats. Serving as the digital operational backbone for modern smart buildings, EcoStruxure Building integrates heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), lighting, power distribution, and physical access systems into an open, collaborative IoT platform. Recognizing that the convergence of building automation networks (such as BACnet, Modbus, and LonWorks) with corporate IT networks exposes facilities to severe cybersecurity vulnerabilities, EcoStruxure Building is engineered in accordance with the ISA/IEC 62443 cybersecurity standard for industrial automation. The platform features encrypted communication protocols, secure device authentication, role-based access control, and continuous OT security monitoring to detect anomalous network commands and prevent unauthorized firmware modifications. EcoStruxure Building provides facility managers with intuitive graphical dashboards, predictive maintenance analytics, and open API connectivity to enterprise IT management platforms like ServiceNow, delivering resilient, sustainable, and cyber-hardened smart building operations.
