Data Diode

The 100Mbps and 1Gbps Data Diode are multimode fibre optic hardware devices that are connected between 2 servers attached to their respective security domains. BAE Systems Australia Data Pump Applications, installed on these servers, provide a unidirectional mechanism for transmitting different data types through the Data Diode.

BAE Systems Australia provides four basic Data Pump Applications that can be adapted for any organisation's specific data transfer requirements. These include:

Data Forwarding Application used for the real-time transfer of IP Packets from lower to higher classifications in environments where an organisation needs to transfer streaming data such as video, audio and sensor data in real-time with minimal latency.

File Transfer Application used for the automated transfer of files placed into a specific source directory on the lower classification to a corresponding destination directory on the higher classification.

Clipboard & File Transfer Application allows user-initiated transfers of data from a lower classification session to a higher classification session. By interfacing with a session's Operating System Clipboard the CFT can transfer text, image and files.

Email Transfer Application used for the automated transfer of email from lower to higher classification. It interfaces with SMTP mail servers, such as MS Exchange, to allow users on the higher classification to receive email from users on the lower classification.
