Your confidential information needs to stay confidential. Your critical assets need to remain secure and your Intellectual property has to remain safeguarded at all costs. However, high levels of security often hamper productivity. To date, common practice has been to use a firewall or a so-called air gap (i.e. network separation) as a security measure to prevent data leakage or disaster. The results, however, are not satisfactory. Using a firewall means loosening the reins on security measures to achieve a more fluent workflow, which will put your data at risk. Using an air gap is too impractical. With the Fox DataDiode Appliance, you have a cross-domain solution that reconciles the seemingly contradictory requirements of high assurance and free flow of information. Its guaranteed one-way network connectivity makes sure you can securely and smoothly transfer information in real-time, 24x7. Offering the highest certified level of security and preventing unwanted access to business assets and critical systems. Key features of Fox DataDiode Appliance

Benefits The Fox DataDiode Appliance is unique compared to other unidirectional gateways and data diodes for the following reasons:

• Multiplexable: A single Fox DataDiode setup can support as many protocols and data channels as you wish, as long as the bandwidth permits; some alternative solutions require you to buy a separate diode for every single feature.
• 100% hardware solution: some alternative solutions depend on embedded firmware and are essentially low-level software solutions.
• Common Criteria certification at level EAL7+: alternative solutions are only certified to level   EAL4+ at most.
• Independent vendor: Fox-IT is from an independent state. The Fox DataDiode has been independently evaluated by labs from all over the world, including labs linked to the governments of the US, Russian Federation and India.
• Transparent solution: With the Fox DataDiode, you have clarity upfront. There is a clear distinction between the security guarantee and the solution middleware. Some alternative solutions have blurry distinctions such it is unclear how and where the security claim is guaranteed or implemented.
