Let's protect the core of the data diode one-way communication restriction device "OWCD"!
One-Way Communication Data Diode OWCD
Is Zero Trust okay? It took 349 days to realize we were breached! Can we protect critical infrastructure and production facilities? Simple and clear security "OWCD."
Firewalls, VPNs, gateways, virus check and access authentication software—these countermeasures are actually nearly impossible to implement effectively. Maintenance is challenging, and no matter how much zero trust security is touted as foolproof, the reality is that... According to a survey, it takes an average of 349 days to realize that a ransomware attack has occurred. In fact, breaches have already taken place. Whether or not actual damage occurs depends on the intruders. As such, there is a significant gap between ideals and reality. It is too late to realize the need for protection after a breach has occurred. For core infrastructure, production equipment, IoT data collection, and system operation monitoring (SYS-LOG) checks, it is essential to ensure that something cannot enter or exit at each boundary. This is where the one-way communication restriction device "OWCD," which allows communication in only one direction while effectively blocking communication from the opposite direction, proves useful. There is a rapid increase in cases utilizing it for real-world responses to cyber terrorism and cyber attacks, as well as the pursuit of zero trust integrity! OWCD has a market share of 14%, but its sales ratio is only 1%. This is proof of its overwhelmingly low price compared to competitors! We will lend you an evaluation unit, so please confirm it for yourself. There is an explanatory video at the related link below! This technology is patented by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.

basic information
The Data Diode is fundamentally based on connecting a cable in one direction (unidirectional) from a circuit that is essentially disconnected (with no physical cable). There are no settings for unidirectional communication; it is simply not possible to enter from this point. For more details, please refer to the video explanation on our company website linked below. Ensuring that unnecessary external intrusion routes are completely blocked, or that even if there is any contamination, it does not leak to the outside, significantly enhances safety and security. It is necessary to carefully consider and implement settings that reliably block gateways and firewalls. This requires careful thought and effort to ensure accurate settings without mistakes. Since data, commands, protocols, and packets cannot flow in from the outside, physical attacks from external sources become impossible. This significantly reduces risks to a level comparable to systems that are completely isolated from the network, preventing attacks that exploit system vulnerabilities or remote access accounts. Moreover, since there is no need for monitoring communication logs or vulnerability assessments, maintenance personnel are not required, which can lead to reduced operational burden and cost savings. There is an increasing number of cases in critical infrastructure, factories, research institutions, and medical facilities where information is provided and utilized across boundaries without the worry of data leakage.

Applications/Examples of results
If it is acceptable to regulate communication in one direction for each device, such as from OT to IT and from IT to the Internet, it can be used anywhere. If you aim for zero trust, you should design to segment. It will be installed at the point where data is sent from the most critical segment. When publishing information on the web, simply inserting a data diode between the web server and the database in the information transmission circuit can prevent intrusion into the database. When registering production equipment data into the production management system, it is sufficient to insert it between the PLC and the database. We have numerous achievements in remote monitoring of thermal power plants (including overseas: South Korea, Southeast Asia, and Europe). While I cannot discuss specifics, we are also beginning to utilize this for the defense of critical infrastructure important to everyone, including government agencies and public institutions. In offices that handle a lot of personal information, design firms and engineering offices that deal with intellectual property, and security-conscious departments like factories and construction companies, you can conveniently utilize your investment in network segmentation without it going to waste. Our company is open to consultations regarding shape modifications for customers considering product integration. Please feel free to contact us.
Detailed information
-
High-speed versions such as 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps are available. We also have an integrated model using the same chassis, the OWCD3: Data Diode, which combines the OWCD2 and a computer for INOUT. There is a rapidly increasing number of cases where this is utilized by system integrators when providing systems to users who prioritize data security.
-
We have prepared models that support commonly needed serial communication such as RS-232C and RS-485, available at a lower cost.
-
This is the central product of the data diode "OWCD," the [OWCD2]. It is a general-purpose model with an effective value of 100 Mbps. We have numerous sales achievements to date. It is widely used for data security in information systems, as well as for defending against cyber terrorism and cyber attacks in IoT.
-
We have started supporting OPC-UA! Based on the popular OWCD-2, we have integrated the preprocessing and postprocessing PC into one unit. We will provide it with OPC-UA client functionality. In industrial networks, we are advancing the utilization of OPC-UA, which promotes: - Diversification and high functionality across the entire production system - Secure communication The physical one-way communication restricted data diode OWCD, which performs simple and convenient boundary control, is now docked with OPC-UA. We provide measures to protect you!
