PLC backup.
Automated and versioned.

With zero human intervention.

Tridenty Backup is automated backup software for Siemens (TIA Portal V15+, Step7) and Allen-Bradley (Studio 5000, RSLogix) PLCs and Cisco and SCALANCE switches. A local agent backs up, versions and detects changes in configurations on the schedule you define, on-premise and air-gap ready.

What happens when a PLC fails without a backup?

Hours of reprogramming

The technician rebuilds the configuration from scratch. Every hour of downtime has a real cost.

Wrong version restored

Without a version history, you don't know which configuration was active before the failure.

No traceability

There's no record of who changed what, when, or why. Audits become impossible.

plant reality

"In most industrial plants, PLCs have no backup. The first failure proves it."

Workflow

How Tridenty Backup works

Set it up once. The system works for you from that moment on.

1
01

The agent installs in your network

A lightweight agent is deployed on a Windows server inside your OT network. No changes to the PLCs required.

2
02

Detects and connects your devices

Configure PLCs and switches by IP, model and credentials. The agent verifies connectivity automatically.

3
03

Automatic backup on schedule

Set the frequency (daily, weekly, event-based). The agent runs the backup with no intervention.

4
04

Versioning and secure storage

Each backup creates a commit with timestamp, author and metadata. Stored in on-premise MinIO or the cloud.

Capabilities

What Tridenty Backup includes

Every feature exists because a backup without traceability is not a real backup.

Siemens

Siemens TIA Portal & Step7

Native support for TIA Portal V15+ and Step7 Classic projects. Full backup of .zap and .s7p projects.

Rockwell

Allen-Bradley / Rockwell

Compatible with Studio 5000, RSLogix 5000 and RSLogix 500. Backup via UI Automation with no agent on the PLC.

OT networks

Cisco & SCALANCE switches

running-config backup via SSH/TFTP. Compatible with Cisco IOS and Siemens SCALANCE X/XC series.

Automation

Configurable scheduler

Set the frequency per device: hourly, daily, weekly or event-based. No code, from the panel.

Versioning

Git-like versioning

Each backup is a commit with timestamp, user and diff. Restore any version with one click.

Storage

MinIO / S3 storage

On-premise with MinIO or in the cloud (AWS S3, Azure Blob). You decide where your data lives.

Monitoring

Alerts and notifications

Email or webhook notifications when a backup fails, a device is unreachable or storage fills up.

Enterprise

Multi-site / multi-plant

Manage devices across multiple plants from a single centralized panel.

Architecture

Hybrid architecture:
local agent + central platform

The Tridenty Backup agent runs on your Windows server, inside your OT network. It talks to the central platform only to sync metadata and receive schedules. Backup files go straight to your on-premise MinIO or your cloud bucket.

Security by design

  • Agent→platform communication encrypted with TLS 1.3
  • Device credentials encrypted on the local agent
  • The panel never stores PLC credentials
  • Immutable audit logs per backup
  • Multi-tenant: each organization isolated by organization_id

FAQ

Tridenty Backup FAQ

What is Tridenty Backup?

Tridenty Backup is automated backup software for PLCs and OT devices. An agent installed in your network backs up, versions and detects changes in configurations on the schedule you define, and restores any version in one click.

Which PLCs and devices are supported?

Siemens TIA Portal V15+ and Step7 Classic (.zap and .s7p projects), Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Studio 5000, RSLogix 5000 and RSLogix 500, and Cisco IOS and Siemens SCALANCE X/XC switches (running-config over SSH/TFTP).

Do I need to install anything on the PLCs?

No. The agent is installed on a Windows server inside your OT network and requires no changes to the PLCs. For Allen-Bradley, backup runs through UI Automation with no agent on the PLC.

Where are backups stored?

Wherever you choose: on-premise in MinIO or in the cloud on AWS S3 or Azure Blob. Agent-to-platform communication uses TLS 1.3 and only syncs metadata; device credentials stay encrypted on the local agent.

Does it work on air-gapped networks?

Yes. Deployment is air-gap compatible and storage can stay fully on-premise.

How is Tridenty Backup licensed?

With an annual or perpetual license, both with unlimited devices and all brands included. Initial implementation includes setup, backup of up to 5 devices and team training.
