Preventing the use of syslog collection circuits by malware: A prerequisite for SOC collaboration.
One-way communication restriction device data diode "OWCD"
SOC services should absolutely not be a pathway for malware intrusion. The adoption of secure measures is increasingly becoming a trend.
EDR = "micro monitoring" of terminals, SIEM = "macro monitoring" of the entire organization, and SOC = a "human team (command center)" that monitors, analyzes, and responds 24/365 using those tools. The issue is the "people" who monitor, analyze, and respond 24/365. To achieve zero trust, it is essential to continuously collect and analyze logs and monitoring data from each device, but if the system management information cannot be sent to infrastructure engineers, it becomes hopeless to conduct detailed analysis consistently. Therefore, it is a natural progression to outsource to external specialized services. However, there is no difference in connecting to the outside, and the question is how to secure it; if an intrusion occurs from there, it can be catastrophic... This is where the data diode "OWCD" comes into play! OWCD is perfect not only for the line that sends data to external SOC specialized services but also for the route that sends logs and monitoring data from OT to SIEM. It can only allow one-way flow. The adoption by infrastructure engineers is rapidly increasing. It has become indispensable for support services. For SIers, if you want to promote cybersecurity, let's effectively utilize boundary control as well. There is a video explanation linked below! Feel free to contact us.

basic information
The Data Diode is based on the principle of connecting circuits that are physically separated without any physical cable connection, allowing data to flow in only one direction. There are no settings required for one-way communication, so there is no possibility of reverse flow. For connectionless protocols like Syslog, which are better without a connection, you simply place this physical boundary device between the collector and the source. No configuration is needed for the Data Diode. There are no setup tasks typically associated with routers or firewalls, making operational management simple. There is also no concern about configuration or passwords being compromised. Additionally, it will never send a response to any incoming requests, which is strictly prohibited in mirroring. While monitoring is essential in case something happens, constant monitoring means that if there is no need for incoming data, the incoming side can be closed off, limiting data flow to only outgoing. This boundary control is beneficial. For companies providing infrastructure engineering, how they regulate themselves offers a significant advantage in ensuring the peace of mind of their clients. If there is no need to maintain a connection on the client side, physically disconnecting can build trust and allow a focus on SIEM activities. For inquiries, please visit the related link above.
Price information
Data diodes, which are often associated with high costs, can incur exorbitant expenses when using products from other companies, but that's not the case with OWCD. It's much simpler than setting up various configurations and VLANs. While there is indeed an initial investment, it's clearer than the costs associated with unclear cybersecurity, providing a different level of reassurance for management. For SIers providing infrastructure engineering, this investment greatly contributes to enhancing customer trust. The first step towards zero trust in OT, the "symbol of safety," offers visual and physical reassurance that resonates with management as well.

Applications/Examples of results
Mirroring communication signals from a switching hub for monitoring is simply about connecting the OWCD to the circuit. No special routing settings are required. It has been adopted by many companies. Furthermore, it can be used anywhere if you can limit communication in one direction for each device, such as manufacturing equipment and medical devices, between OT and IT, or IT and infrastructure services. It is also being used to completely separate incoming communications from unspecified sources outside the company and outgoing communications to specific destinations, preventing remote operations or unauthorized data exfiltration by intruders in case of emergencies. The OWCD itself has a sales record of over 150 units and has numerous achievements in remote monitoring of thermal power plants. While I can't discuss specifics, its use in critical infrastructure such as government agencies, public institutions, transportation, and important departments within companies in sectors like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and ceramics is increasing. Among these, its application in SIEM activities is accelerating rapidly. The use of unique cybersecurity solutions provided by system integrators is also on the rise!
