Security Exhibits

Keysight Technologies, Inc. recognizes the potential risk of computer virus infection that may be posed by instruments which are capable of connecting to computers or networks. We take this threat seriously and have acted to minimize the threat. The following Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) address key areas of concern.

 

1.       What steps do you take to protect your instruments from infection by computer viruses?

 

a.       Keysight has enacted a number of measures to take all reasonable precautions to prevent the spread of viruses from instruments to our customers’ computers and networks. In addition to implementation of centrally managed firewall and anti-virus (AV) programs for all business computers, all computers used in operations that touch instruments destined for customers maintain the latest virus definitions and are scanned regularly.

 

b.       Strict virus control protocols have been enacted in manufacturing, service, support, sales, distribution and demonstration environments. These include the use of isolated LANs, control of removable memory devices, scanning of instruments and removable memory devices and/or reimaging hard drives, as appropriate depending upon instrument configuration.
