Data Diode Technology- Secure one way transfer of data
What is a data diode? A data diode is hardware device that is often called a "unidirectional security gateway". It is placed between two networks with different levels of security and controls the flow of information in a safe, one-way transfer of data between segmented networks. In terms of security, network data flowing through data diodes makes it impossible for an insecure or hostile network to imbibe malware or access the system. Data diodes allows data processing in real time to information management systems protecting valuable information and network infrastructure from theft, destruction, tampering, and human error, mitigating potential loss of thousands of dollars and countless hours of work. Data diode design maintains physical and electrical separation of source and destination networks, establishing a non-routable, completely closed one-way data transfer between networks eliminating external points of entry to the sending system, preventing intruders and contagio
