About Owl Cross Domain Solutions

Owl Cross Domain Solutions (CDS) transfer data one-way, between organizations and systems operating at different security classifications (e.g., Unclassified and Secret) or trust environments (e.g., Internet and Restricted Enclaves). That one-way transfer provides absolute separation and prevents any possible malicious or inadvertent leakage of sensitive data from or insertion of attack vectors into the destination infrastructure.

For example, time sensitive data collection of: imagery and geospatial data, electronic signals, intelligence, scientific, or technical information, open source data, voice and video media streams, dev-ops archive migrations, and fixed format messaging.

Owl CDS products are comprised of patented hardware and software components that include data verification methods (filters, checksums, etc.) and have been tailored to meet specific mission requirements. At the heart of each solution is our proprietary data diode design which provides a hardware based, deterministic one-way only transfer of data. All Owl CDS products have been accredited and validated for operational use.
