Data Diode Engine
Proxy software for unidirectional network solutions
- Software-only solution, deploy on compatible commercial hardware
- Ready to use with an extensive library of software services for multiple use cases
- Seamless intergration with all Advenica data diode products
“Compatible with all data diodes from Advenica”
Overview
The Data Diode Engine is a lightweight proxy software designed to work seamlessly with data diodes to enable secure, one-way data flows between network zones.
Delivered as a standalone software package, the Data Diode Engine is fully installable on generic, off-the-shelf hardware, allowing flexibility in choosing the infrastructure best suited for specific environment and compliance needs.
We wanted a proxy software which could be delivered in modular components, to increase the flexibility and maintainability of the complete system solution.”

Some security challenges where datadiodes are a good solution
Traceability and security logging
Centralised logging in security-sensitive systems involves an enhanced risk of attacks. To reduce the risks, a solution is needed that protects both log data and all connected systems. Read more about traceability and security logging.
Secure transfer of SCADA information
To transmit critical information, e.g. from a SCADA system to an administrative office network means potential security risks. But there are solutions that take care of security problems and at the same time enables an exchange of information. Read more about secure transfer of SCADA information.
Secure updates
Updates for Windows and Linux systems are an important part of maintaining the security of the digital information in these systems. However, the updates themselves may be a security risk – to avoid these risks and to maintain the integrity and availability of the systems and be able to make secure updates, special solutions are required.
