Preventing the Syslog collection circuit from being used by malware: A condition of Zero Trust.
Data Diode "OWCD"
The compatibility between Zero Trust and data diodes is actually outstanding! The number of adoption cases is steadily increasing. Let's make visible progress!
Zero Trust is fundamentally about "not trusting," but there is the challenge of "how to connect to places that cannot be fully trusted." This is where the data diode OWCD comes into play! When connecting control networks (OT) in factories and power plants to external networks (IT), there is a growing need for "secure one-way communication to send data," and the adoption of OWCD is increasing. Today, I will discuss "secure transfer of Syslog" within this context. To realize Zero Trust, it is essential to continuously collect and analyze logs and monitoring data from each device. However, if we do not send the OT information, which we want to keep cleaner, to the often challenging IT side, it becomes nearly impossible to conduct continuous collection and analysis. This makes it perfect for the purpose of simply sending OT-side logs and monitoring data to the IT-side SIEM. In fact, the adoption is rapidly increasing from infrastructure engineering applications. SIers, if you want to promote cybersecurity, let's effectively utilize boundary control to protect yourselves. There is an explanatory video linked below! Feel free to reach out for inquiries.

basic information
The Data Diode is based on the principle of connecting circuits that are physically separated and have no cable connection in only one direction. There are no settings required for one-way communication. Therefore, it cannot be accessed from here. For log collection, we recommend the "OWCD-2," a model with a nominal communication bandwidth of 100 Mbps. In the case of UDP-based Syslog, you simply need to place this physical boundary restriction device. No settings are required for the OWCD. There is no configuration work typically associated with routers and firewalls, making operational management easy, and there is no worry about settings or passwords being compromised. While it is important to monitor for any incidents, constant monitoring, meaning a line that is always connected, is beneficial as it limits incoming access to information dissemination when there is no need. For companies providing infrastructure engineering, how they regulate themselves can provide a significant advantage in ensuring the peace of mind of their clients, allowing them to focus on SIEM activities.

Price information
This is part of a zero-trust approach. It's not just hardware; it's a strategic investment step. While there will be initial investment costs, they are clearer than the costs associated with unclear cybersecurity issues, providing a different level of reassurance for management. For companies that provide infrastructure engineering, this investment will greatly help enhance customer trust. Shall we start by sending logs through one-way communication? The 'symbol of reassurance' and the visual and physical sense of security will resonate with the management team.

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. OWCD itself has 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 utilization in critical infrastructure such as government agencies, public institutions, and important departments within companies in sectors like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and ceramics is steadily increasing. There is also a growing trend of completely separating incoming communications from unspecified sources outside government agencies and outgoing communications to specific destinations to prevent remote operations or unauthorized data exfiltration in case of emergencies. The use of unique cybersecurity solutions provided by SIers is also rapidly increasing!
