A single compromised PDU can lead to unplanned outages and financial loss

Cybersecurity risks are no longer confined to the network—they now reach the rack, where a compromised PDU can disrupt entire systems. With breaches averaging around € 4 million and downtime costing up to € 9000 per second, securing your power infrastructure is critical to protecting uptime and revenue.

Built Different: A New Class of Secure PDUs

In a zero-trust era, true data centre security starts at the hardware level—not with promises, but with proven protection. While most PDUs rely on standard security features, only Raritan PX4 and Server Technology PRO4X deliver a uniquely verified, hardware-rooted approach. The matrix below highlights how this “Triple Crown” of security sets them apart from conventional industry PDUs—bringing unmatched resilience to your power infrastructure.

Feature	Legrand (PX4 / PRO4X)	Standard Industry PDUs	Benefit
External VAPT	Independent, third-party assessment performed by CBIZ Pivot Point Security.	Internal or self-assessment only.	Verified, Not Just Claimed
Secure Boot	Only PDU line to ensure only manufacturer-trusted firmware boots the device.	Standard BIOS without sequential signature validation.	Hardware-Rooted Trust
Secure Element	Dedicated hardware chip (Microchip ATECC608B) for non-extractable keys [80, Source 4].	Software-based key storage (vulnerable to extraction).	Tamper-Proof Encryption
Support Model	Free firmware updates for the life of the product.	Recurring subscription fees (up to 100€/PDU after year one).	Zero Hidden Costs
Update Frequency	Firmware updates released every 2 months to stay ahead of threats.	Infrequent or irregular update cycles.	Proactive Defense

Simplified Audits and Guaranteed Compliance

Meet and exceed global regulations using the internal "IoT Laws Compliance Playbook" featuring 28 rigorous requirements

Regulation	Requirement	PDU Solution
CA SB-327	Mandatory change of default passwords upon first login.	Enforced password change at initial setup.
EU CRA	Products must be kept secure via updates throughout their lifetime.	Bi-monthly firmware updates and long-term support for legacy hardware.
NIST / ISO 27001	Best practices for information security management systems.	ISO 27001 certified R&D centers and software development processes.
EU Taxonomy	Reporting on cumulative and instantaneous power usage/temperature.	Outlet-level metering with ±0.5% accuracy for granular reporting.
ASHRAE	Environmental monitoring (e.g., 6 sensors per rack).	Plug-and-play SmartSensors for temperature, humidity, and airflow.
