1 Challenges in Engineering (CAD/CAx) and
Product Data eXchange

Status Quo & Challenges
Complexity in Product-, Process- and Organizations
 Products with mechanics, electric/electronic, software
demands cross discipline, digital connected engineering
entire value chain
 Collaborative design projects require horizontal and
vertical data exchange processes with LOBs, Partners,
Supplier OEMs etc.
 Global engineering collaboration across borders, unclear
communication and various transmission paths with
missing transparency of data transfer process
 Large file transfer in GB range with rising tendency,
increased frequency of data exchanges
 Mixture of ad hoc transfer and stable business partner
links with various data exchange scenarios e.g.
synchronous (online), asynchronous (offline), integrated
or "stand-alone“
 Increased security & compliance requirements, data
encryption, authorized access, digital signatures,
certificates, protection of intellectual property
 Multiple different software used e.g. Email, FTP, CD/DVD,
OEM-portal depending on LOB, partner and use case
 Various and complex partner relationships with a high
degree of dynamism: Today partner > tomorrow
competitor
 Engineering partners and customers with specific industry
standards (ENGDAT, ENGPART, OFTP)
 Different Partner & different CAD systems. data exchange
with many manual steps (e.g. connecting format
conversion, validating and quality check tools, zip, tar, …)
 Engineering and product data is stored in different ways
and systems e.g. PLM/PDM or just file based network
storage

2 The Impact of Digital and Connected Engineering
Entire the Horizontal and Vertical Value Chain

The Impact of Digital Connected Engineering
Horizontal and Vertical Engineering Entire Value Chain
Cross-domain engineering collaboration
between disciplines and partners along
the product life cycle within entire the
value chain getting more and more
importance.
SEEBURGER provides EPX as complete
solution for all engineering (CAD/CAx)
and product data eXchange tasks with
integrated communication and security
solutions.

3.1 Security & Compliance
Fulfill your Partner- and OEMs Security Guidelines

High Priority for Security on Each Level
Secure Data Transfer Processes to Protect the Intellectual Property
Security on Application Level
Fully role-based application with user
management and user-based access rights
Authorization and authentication
Audit for compliance and monitoring e.g. status
tracking
Security on Proxy Level
No need for communication adapters
inside DMZ
No adapter logic inside DMZ
No inbound connections from DMZ
No data stored in DMZ
Security on Protocol Level e.g. OFTP2/https
Secure authentication, TLS server & client
File encryption, file compression
Certificates
EERP
Secure http for internet
Security on Operating Level e.g. Cloud Service
ISO-certified professional data center with
multiply certified security, detailed service level
agreements
Comprehensive disaster recovery options and
approved escalation management

Security Needs for Internet File Transfer
OFTP2 Can Use Three Levels of Security
Unencrypted Data
Unencrypted Data TLS
OFTP2 uses the Transport Layer Security (TLS)
to establish a secure session for a protected
data transmission.
Session Security
OFTP2–TLSSecurityUsageOnly
Encrypted Data
For higher security requirements, OFTP2
enables the additional encryption of the
transmitted data content.
Data Encryption
TLS
Transfer
If the business process or legal environment
require signed documents (e. g. contracts, invoices
etc.) OFTP2 provides the ability to attach digital
electronic signatures to business documents.

3.3 EPX Cloud Service

SEEBURGER Cloud Services
Services for Line-of-Business (LoB)
The driver for digitalization initiatives in many companies are
the business units. They are in daily contact with your customers,
so they are the first and best choice when it comes to knowing
their needs for new (digital) services.
Business Units want to react flexibly to these customer needs
and provide new service offerings as quickly as possible –
with a “short time to market”.
SEEBURGER LoB Cloud Services are the answer to this:
Solutions for specific verticals (e.g. Utilities)
Portal for inbound E-Invoicing (based on Paper/PDF/EDI etc.)
Portal for outbound E-Invoicing (secure Invoice Delivery Cloud Service)
EPX Cloud Service for Engineering (CAD/CAx) and Product Data
