|------|---------|----------------|
| 5450 | PI Data Archive | SDK/API data access |
| 5457 | PI AF Server | Asset Framework access |
| 443 | HTTPS | Web API (acceptable if TLS) |
| 80 | HTTP | Cleartext credentials/data |
| 1433 | MS SQL | Direct database queries |
| 3389 | RDP | Remote admin access |

| 4-5 | Enterprise | Consumer of DMZ data |
## Authentication Methods
| Method | Security Level | Recommendation |
|--------|---------------|----------------|
