Growing complexity of organizations and abundance of data has exposed cyber channels to a range of vulnerabilities that can take the form of data breaches, malware attacks, or other security threats. Data Diodes can help in averting such cyber risks through its unique value offering for secure data protection.
Establishing central monitoring location: Data diodes can create value across industrial networks by complementing cumbersome and complex firewalls. The technology has streamlined a unified data protection mechanism for critical industries.
Sharing data with corporate IT networks: Despite inducing large-scale productivity, the convergence of OT and IT technologies has given rise to severe cyber risks due to unsecure data exchange. Data diodes can resolve this anomaly by using one-way communication protocols instead of air-gapped pathways for IT and OT security.
Protecting production systems from breaches/intrusions: Connection of IT and OT networks can create inlets for malware or ransomware to intrude systems that monitor production activities. This can be avoided with hardware-based separation of data diodes.
