Securing OT Environments with Data Diodes, and Network Taps

Operational Technology (OT) networks require stringent security measures to prevent cyber threats from disrupting industrial processes. While IT security focuses on protecting data, OT security prioritizes uptime, safety, and reliability. Data diodes, and network taps each play a critical role in securing OT environments by ensuring controlled data flow, and enabling visibility. Together, these technologies create a robust defense against cyber threats while maintaining operational continuity.

The Value of Data Diodes and Network Taps

  • Unidirectional Data Flow – Data diodes enforce one-way communication, preventing remote cyberattacks while allowing safe data extraction for monitoring.
  • Enhanced Visibility – Network taps provide passive traffic monitoring without introducing risks, enabling real-time threat detection and forensic analysis.

Eliminating Attack Vectors – Unlike traditional network devices, data diodes physically block unauthorized inbound traffic, reducing the risk of malware or remote exploits
