Unidirectional security gateways ebook

Cybersecurity for Industrial Control Systems 

Industrial digitization is steadily increasing cyber vulnerabilities in industrial control systems.  IT/OT integration and cloud connectivity greatly increases the “attack surface” for industrial networks – and opens the door to cybercriminals.

Unidirectional technology addresses these issues by providing 100% protection from remote cyber threats. In this eBook, we explain how Unidirectional Security Gateways:

  • Enable seamless and safe IT/OT integration
  • Permit one-way transfer of industrial data
  • Allow safe monitoring of industrial operations
  • Eliminate attack opportunities that always accompany firewalled connections
  • Represent a plug-and-play replacement for firewalls

Unidirectional Gateways contain both hardware and software components. The hardware components ensure one-way transmission and replication of server information from an industrial control network to an external network, but prevent the propagation of any virus, DOS attack, human error, or any cyberattack at all back into the protected network.
