Yes, customers will be more concerned. However, security will be a big issue with every connectivity going forward and to get it right is far easier with Ethernet than with a classical fieldbus.
Profinet security is under full steam development and, while I can’t make any official announcements or commitments on behalf of Pi, my personal opinion is that we will see a roll out within the next two years.
Until then, we have a good baseline following the Profinet Security Guideline and defense in depth.
