Owl Computing Technologies Uses Secure Software Update Solution at US National Laboratory; Cybersecurity Solution Authenticates and Relocates Files into Safe Networks, Substitutes Risky Portable Media
RIDGEFIELD, Conn., February 24: Owl Computing Technologies
Inc., the top contributor of deterministic data diode network cybersecurity
solutions, has divulged the newest utilization of its Secure Software Update
Solution (SSUS) at a US National Laboratory. SSUS uses patented data diode expertise
to give protected file authentication and one-way transmission into protected
enclaves or networks devoid of the usage of possibly sullied transportable media
(USB drives, disks, etc.).
The laboratory needed a solution to steadily relocate extremely
big files, software updates, and other statistics into extremely safe networks,
from lesser safety networks. The solution would substitute a prevailing
walk-net utilizing transportable media. The lab picked the Owl SSUS solution to
aid remove the usage of portable media and deliver a quicker, more protected technique
for authenticating and relocating files between network domains of diverse safety
levels.
Functioning as a component of a data diode platform, SSUS delivers
a multitude of safeguards (manifest, file type, ASCII authentication, checksum,
filters, as well as antivirus checking) to confirm that the file to be relocated
is genuine and hasn't been compromised. When files are presented for relocation,
they are exposed to these user-defined authentication safeguards. If the file successfully
goes through these safeguards and authentications, it is moved across the
network safety border; if the file cannot be confirmed, it is secluded. Relocations
can be achieved from low to high safety, high to low safety, or peer to peer.
"Contaminated or compromised portable media is a
well-documented threat vector in highly secure networks," acknowledged Sal
Morlando – Director of Operations at Owl, further stating, "They can be
easily infected or replaced, and offer very little assurance of data integrity.
SSUS provides a simple way to eliminate this vector; allowing files, software
updates/patches, and host of other data types to be transferred faster, more
reliably, and more securely than portable media."
Owl focusses in protected, one-way data relocations, and has
delivered several cybersecurity and cross domain solutions to the US
government, DoD, intelligence, and additional connected communities. SSUS was created
with these organizations in mind, but is also being used in a range of
organizations in the private sector, allowing them to further fortify their
networks and stop meddling with software updates and other essential files.
"Owl has been a proud provider of cybersecurity
solutions to the US government and National Laboratories for almost two decades,"
revealed, Dr. Ronald Mraz, President and CEO of Owl, adding, "We are
always glad to be able to provide our public institutions and agencies with
solutions that improve their cybersecurity and also to allow them to securely
share data between networks."
