Protect the core of the data diode "OWCD" system!
One-way communication restriction device data diode OWCD
Zero Trust is not a philosophy of "discarding boundaries." What is the "final boundary" required in all networks in the AI era?
There has been a lot of discussion about a case where OpenAI went out of control while verifying intrusion capabilities in a controlled environment and infiltrated other companies' systems, raising concerns about cyber threats. The information-stealing malware (infostealer), which is the first step in an intrusion, collects information from devices and sends only the information beneficial for the intrusion to the AI, which then instructs the next steps. This process reportedly takes about a minute, and it is clever enough to evade communication monitoring. If an intrusion is allowed, attackers can cause damage at any time, potentially leading to serious consequences such as business shutdowns. OWCD physically isolates communication in one direction. It builds a "zero trust wall" with hardware that cannot be breached by software, eliminating the possibility of attacks. It is perfectly compatible with zero trust and is chosen as the "last bastion" of multi-layered defense. Cyber attacks aim for "operational shutdowns" targeting critical infrastructure, production facilities, IoT, and SYS-LOG lines. Once breached, these areas put business continuity at risk. Measures at the "entry" point are essential, and it is also crucial to have a mechanism that seals off the "exit" to the outside where information-stealing malware can transmit stolen information. That’s OWCD. There is an explanatory video at the related link below! This technology is patented by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.

basic information
While Zero Trust Security is gaining attention, misconceptions such as "boundary defense is outdated" and "boundaries are unnecessary" are spreading. However, Zero Trust is a strong measure against lateral movement and the upgrade of authentication privileges, but its essence is not about discarding boundaries; rather, it is about "not placing trust solely in boundaries." This does not mean that boundaries become unnecessary. On the contrary, boundaries should be "strengthened on the premise of not trusting." A Data Diode is a structure that connects a one-way communication line to a circuit that is physically disconnected, completely eliminating reverse pathways. The "OWCD" enforces one-way communication without the need for configuration, making external intrusion impossible at the physical layer. The "OWCD" does not allow any communication to flow in the reverse direction, physically nullifying attacks. Exploitation of vulnerabilities or attacks via remote accounts are also rendered ineffective, achieving a risk reduction equivalent to network separation. The "one-way communication restriction" that fundamentally cuts off intrusion pathways dramatically enhances safety. There are also methods to use it in such a way that even if it is turned upside down, it cannot exit to the outside. Please contact us via the related link above.
Price information
Ransomware attacks have become a cost-effective "business." Thinking "we're a small company..." is a no-go. An attack can be carried out for tens of thousands of yen, while it can impose recovery costs of hundreds of millions of yen (of course, without a ransom). Once AI is used to find vulnerabilities, preventing intrusion becomes difficult. It's not just about preventing attacks; the key is how quickly you can recover. In an era where utilizing the internet is essential, a multi-layered defense that protects the core is the investment that pays off. There are variations depending on the communication content.

Applications/Examples of results
Each machine can be used anywhere if communication is restricted to one direction, such as OT to IT, IT to the Internet, etc. The most important segmentation point (micro-segmentation) Securing communication in government agencies, data file transfers Circuit from OT systems to IT systems for sending production data to management systems in the supply chain Circuit for updating customer-provided (display) information from the database to the web server Information distribution circuit from medical databases to insurance claim receipt systems Information dissemination via email (also for predictive prevention information) We have many achievements in remote monitoring of thermal power plants (including overseas: achievements in South Korea, Southeast Asia, and Europe). I can't share much, but we are also utilizing it for the defense of critical infrastructure important to everyone. The notion of "our company is small..." is no longer relevant. In the UK, four small thermal power plants were breached, and water supply facilities have also been targeted. Once considered infrastructure, everyone is a target; the supply chain is also infrastructure. Conducting operations at the boundary with the Internet is indeed outdated; we are advancing the use of multi-layered defense as the last bastion to protect your core.

Detailed information
-

This is the OWCD G. It is a flagship product of OWCD that supports a communication bandwidth of 1 Gbps. It can be utilized for various needs that require a data diode. It is ideal for applications built by system integrators. Customized models are also available. Please feel free to consult us.
-

This is the first product of the data diode "OWCD" [OWCD2]. It is a general-purpose model with a communication bandwidth of 100 Mbps. Recently, the communication volume used by everyone has increased, leading to capacity shortages, but it is still very much in active use for intrusion prevention measures from Syslog collection routes, among other things.
-

We have started supporting OPC-UA! In industrial networks, we are utilizing OPC-UA, which is advancing in promoting diversification and high functionality across production systems, as well as securing communication, along with the OWCD, a physical one-way communication restricted data diode that enables easy and convenient boundary control. We provide measures to protect you!
-

Data moving between different secure zones that users are aware of is surprisingly file-centric. It is the best-selling item. We have added a function to OWCD to collect and deliver files with this in mind. Regular collection and delivery will also be conducted. Please consult us regarding applicable models.
-

We provide products that not only transmit data using different communication protocols, but also have the capability to convert them so that the most suitable communication protocol can be used for both collection and transmission, as well as features for data visualization, such as data recording and display analysis. Please consult us regarding applicable models.
