OWCD for boundary-restricted data diodes in IoT, production management, and healthcare operations.
Data Diode "OWCD"
Connecting IoT, production equipment, and medical devices with business networks and general office systems. For cybersecurity measures in between, start with this.
- Let's gather operational information from the PLC and visualize it. - Using IoT for factory monitoring, let's actively improve yield, enhance quality, and conduct condition monitoring. - By connecting medical devices and electronic medical record systems with medical administration systems, let's aim for the ongoing efficiency of healthcare. However, there are often high barriers, and it is a natural flow to completely isolate devices due to security vulnerabilities. To reliably protect critical IT assets that are potentially at risk of external intrusion, we should ensure that information can be shared internally while remaining completely independent from external access. That's where "OWCD" comes in. It physically shuts out signals from the outside! The setup process is unnecessary, and it can be used simply and clearly. A certain company's ransomware attack targeted network devices, right? Passwords can be broken. There are no settings for OWCD. You are freed from maintenance tasks such as configuring routers and firewalls, applying patches, and managing passwords. One of the cyber resilience measures defined in Japan, the United States, and Europe can be realized through one-way communication control. This technology is patented by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. There is an explanatory video at the related link below! Feel free to contact us.

basic information
The Data Diode is based on the principle of connecting a circuit that is physically disconnected and cut off in one direction only. Therefore, there is no way to enter from here. Burglars typically target homes that are not locked. Ensuring that unnecessary routes are completely blocked makes a significant difference in safety and security. Gateways and firewalls need to be configured to effectively block access. It requires effort to think accurately and set them up without mistakes. Maintaining that is... The OWCD is unrelated to that configuration work; since data, commands, protocols, and packets cannot flow, external server attacks are impossible. Attacks exploiting system vulnerabilities or remote access accounts cannot occur, significantly reducing risks to a level comparable to a system completely isolated from the network. There are no detection-based security measures that are strictly enforced. Encounters with the unknown take time to address, and many are discovered later. The boundary must be strictly maintained to be beneficial. This is why the OWCD is cited as one of the requirements for cyber resilience measures. For inquiries, please visit the related link above.
Price information
Consultation Required Our data diodes are available at a low price that surpasses competitors. While there is an initial investment, it is clearer than the costs associated with unclear cybersecurity, providing a different level of reassurance for business owners. To the information systems departments, we are here to assist you (we also offer paid engineering services). To the SIers, please inquire about how to integrate our proposed systems.

Applications/Examples of results
Each device can be used anywhere if communication is allowed to be controlled in one direction, such as from OT to IT and from IT to the Internet. Business systems are fundamentally structured to segment different areas. We apply this concept there. However, recently, we have also been utilized for services that are not limited to segmentation, such as "remote maintenance" and "log collection from various devices." We have a sales record of over 130 units. There are numerous achievements in remote monitoring of thermal power plants. While I can't discuss specifics, the use of our solutions in critical infrastructure, such as important departments within government agencies, public institutions, and companies in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and ceramics sectors, is on the rise. There is also a growing trend to completely separate incoming communications from unspecified sources outside government agencies and outgoing communications to specific destinations, which helps prevent remote operations or unauthorized data exfiltration in case of emergencies. The utilization of our solutions in providing unique cybersecurity solutions by system integrators is also rapidly increasing! We welcome inquiries regarding shape modifications and other considerations for customers looking to embed our products.

Detailed information
-

This is a 1G-bps compatible model that can be used as a network exit to transmit information from IoT devices such as cameras, edge computing, and production control systems to on-premises servers or cloud services. (10G-bps model available upon request.)
-

The most versatile model in our company's data diode OWCD lineup is the "OWCD2." For customers who find maintenance too inconvenient with only unidirectional communication, this model comes equipped with a bypass circuit for bidirectional communication, complete with a thumb turn key (a less equipped model is also available).
