Sunhillo’s Brigantine Data Diode Module protects the integrity of a secure surveillance network by strictly enforcing a one-way-only flow of data from the secure network to the unsecured network. Within radar surveillance data networks, it is necessary to broadcast radar data from a secured network out onto an open, unsecured network. To fulfill this requirement without jeopardizing the safety and integrity of the secure network assets from the threats of inbound cyber-attacks, it is necessary to prevent data and control communication from the unsecure side of the network from reaching the secure side of the network.
The Brigantine Data Diode accomplishes this by implementing a 100% hardware-enforced security protocol that cannot be disabled or bypassed by any software means.
The Brigantine Data Diode Module is currently undergoing certification for FIPS 140-3 which ensures reliability and security.
The Data Diode module fits directly into the expansion slot on the Sunhillo Brigantine Surveillance Gateway Processor (SGP). The Brigantine is a dedicated 1U communication platform running Sunhillo’s SureLine® software and is designed to address the requirements of new IP based systems for LAN to LAN surveillance sensor data formatting, content filtering, and protocol conversions.
Brigantine SGP hardware provides a high-speed communication platform with a primary focus on LAN infrastructure. The Brigantine SGP supports twelve (12) 1Gb Ethernet Ports and two (2) Enhanced Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP+) ports that provide up to 10Gb Ethernet over copper or single/multi-mode fiber modules
The Data Diode module is compatible with several different Sunhillo product lines. It is available as a plug-in module for both the Brigantine and the Longport chassis, and a stand-alone version based on the Margate II 1U platform.
