OPC Unified Architecture (UA), developed by the Open Platform Communications (OPC) Foundation, is a machine-to-machine communication protocol for industrial automation. The OPC UA Application Connector allows information to be easily and securely shared between platforms and vendors. With seamless integration into those platforms, users can customize how data is organized and how information about that data is reported. By integrating OPC UA with Owl data diodes, industrial organizations can securely transfer OPC UA data out, with no way for threats to get back into Operational Technology (OT) or Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) networks.
