Let's prevent unauthorized access from web servers with the data diode "OWCD"!
One-way communication restriction device data diode OWCD
Zero Trust is not a philosophy of "abandoning 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 useful information for the intrusion to the AI, which then instructs the next steps. This process reportedly takes about a minute. Moreover, it cleverly bypasses communication monitoring to send out the data. 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. Since external-facing web services are accessible to anyone, it is difficult to apply zero-trust mechanisms to them, making them surprisingly hard to protect. Surprisingly, cloud services are weak against new types of attacks because the management responsibility lies with the user. Intrusions often begin from such points... Cyber attacks aim for "operational shutdown," and once breached, business continuity is at risk. OWCD firmly protects the boundary and does not allow intrusions. There is an explanatory video at the related link below! This technology is patented by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.

basic information
In recent years, while Zero Trust security has gained attention, there is a growing misunderstanding that "boundary defense is outdated" and "boundaries are unnecessary." However, Zero Trust is a strong measure against lateral movement and the upgrading of authentication privileges, but its essence is not about - abandoning the boundary, but rather - not placing "trust solely in the boundary." This does not mean that boundaries are unnecessary. On the contrary, boundaries should be "strengthened on the premise of not trusting." A Data Diode is a structure that connects a cable in one direction only 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 neutralizing 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 is also a method to use it in such a way that even if it is turned upside down, it cannot exit to the outside. Please contact us through the related link above.
Price information
Ransomware attacks have become a cost-effective "business." Thinking "we're a small company..." is a mistake. 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 any ransom). Once AI is used to find vulnerabilities, it becomes difficult to prevent intrusions. The key is not only how to prevent attacks but also how quickly you can recover. In an era where utilizing the internet is essential, a multi-layered defense that cannot be breached at its core is the investment that pays off. Please contact us through the related link above.

Applications/Examples of results
IT → Internet, OT → If communication can be restricted in one direction between IT and OT, it can be used anywhere, such as between individual devices. This time, we introduced the "Database ⇒ Customer-provided (display) information update circuit to the Web server," but it is actively used in various ways, including: - The segmentation point of the most important segment (micro-segmentation) - Securing communication in government agencies, data file transfers - Circuits for sending production data from OT systems to IT systems in the supply chain - Information distribution circuits from medical databases to insurance claim receipt systems - Information dissemination via email (also for sending predictive preventive information) There are many achievements in remote monitoring of thermal power plants (including overseas: achievements in South Korea, Southeast Asia, and Europe). While I can't share much, it is also being utilized for the defense of critical infrastructure that is important to everyone. The notion that "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 compromised. Once considered infrastructure, everyone is a target; the supply chain is also infrastructure. It is being utilized as the last bastion of multi-layered defense to protect your core.

Detailed information
-
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 countermeasures from the Syslog collection route, among other things.
-
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 with us.
