Network monitoring essential for log collection: Data diode "OWCD"
One-way communication restriction device data diode "OWCD"
"A one-way device that achieves 'zero backflow' just by placing it" - a lightweight data diode that guarantees the safety of TAP/SPAN mirrors at the physical layer.
Cyber attacks are now in an era where we realize the intrusion only after it has occurred. Monitoring and log collection are the minimum requirements for corporate defense. However, while TAP/SPAN is passive, it is not completely safe because: - Misconfigurations can create bidirectional communication. - If the monitoring side (SOC/log server/NDR) is compromised, there is a risk of backflow. - Software control alone cannot achieve zero risk. - Audits are beginning to demand "backflow countermeasures for monitoring paths." In such situations, the time has come for the "one-way communication restriction device" OWCD, which physically blocks backflow. It can be implemented simply by placing it in the existing network. - No configuration required. - Completely blocks backflow at the physical layer. It enhances the safety of monitoring and log collection. The "five zeros" provided by one-way devices: - Zero backflow. - Zero unauthorized access. - Zero misconfiguration risk. - Zero operational burden. - Minimum implementation cost. It is the only option to add physical safety without changing the existing network. The adoption by infrastructure engineers is rapidly increasing. It is essential for support services. SIers, why not effectively utilize this in your cybersecurity sales efforts? 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 circuits that are physically separated without any 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 Syslog, which is fine without a connection (having a connection would be problematic), you simply place this physical boundary device between the collector and the source. No settings are required for the OWCD. There are no configuration tasks typically associated with routers and firewalls, making operational management easy. There is no concern about settings or passwords being compromised. It will never respond to any incoming requests, which is strictly prohibited in mirroring. While it is important to monitor continuously in case something happens, the boundary control that limits incoming traffic to only what is necessary 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 keep a connection open on the client side, physically disconnecting can build trust and allow them to focus on SIEM activities.

Price information
If you were to do the same thing with a third-party data diode, it would incur tremendous costs, but with OWCD, that is not the case. It is far simpler than various configurations and VLAN setups. While there is indeed an initial investment, it is clearer than the costs incurred by unclear cybersecurity measures, providing a different level of reassurance for management. Additionally, for SIers providing infrastructure engineering, this investment will greatly help enhance customer trust. The first step towards zero trust in OT, a "symbol of reassurance," and the visual and physical sense of security will resonate with management as well.

Applications/Examples of results
Mirroring communication signals from the switching hub for monitoring is really just about connecting the OWCD to the circuit. No special routing settings are required. It has been adopted by many companies. Production network → (TAP/SPAN) → OWCD → Monitoring side Factory PLC → Mirror → OWCD → Log server Camera footage → Mirror → OWCD → VMS Corporate LAN → TAP → OWCD → SOC/NDR OT/ICS The control network is kept in a state that "absolutely cannot be rewritten" from the outside. One-way guarantee of log transfer is effective for audits and serves as "insurance" to reduce factory shutdown risks. SOC/SIEM/NDR Physically eliminate the risk of backflow from TAP/SPAN, completely block intrusions from the SOC side. Bundled sales are possible with NDR vendors. Surveillance cameras/VMS Prevent the camera network from being used as a stepping stone, physically block reverse intrusions to the footage side, and enhance safety without changing existing cameras. Finance/Data Center Ideal for one-way transfer of audit logs; expensive data diodes are not necessary. For inquiries, please visit the related link above.
