File Transfer – Protocol Guide

PROTOCOL GUIDE
File Transfer

Wide protocol support for file transfer from simple SMB to Amazon S3

File transfer between strictly different security zones is crucial for maintaining data integrity and security. It ensures that sensitive information is securely transmitted without exposing critical systems to potential threats. One-way communication, facilitated by data diodes, significantly enhances security by allowing data to flow only from a secure zone to a less secure zone. This unidirectional flow prevents any return path for potential cyber-attacks, ensuring that sensitive networks remain isolated and protected. By using one-way communication, organizations can safely transfer necessary data while mitigating the risk of unauthorized access and maintaining robust cybersecurity protocols.

ConnexOne DNA of one-way protocol transfer comes from its ancestors, deployed only where file transfer was enough. It creates a delivery environment of secure, fast and reliable, but also comply with business flows by adding more security precautions such as data masking, metadata cleaning and external tool integrations.

ConnexOne also allows hierarchical permissions to be applied for any file transfer, matching with corporate security policies, that may be forced by law, or defense industry regulations

27001 COMPLIANCE

Data diodes are critical for ISO 27001 compliance, providing unidirectional data flow to prevent unauthorized access and data exfiltration.

ISO/IEC 27001 is a globally recognized standard for managing information security, aimed at helping organizations protect their information assets such as financial data, intellectual property, and personal information.

It specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continuously improving an Information Security Management System (ISMS), emphasizing risk management and continual improvement.

Key components of ISO 27001 include a systematic approach to managing sensitive information, identifying and treating risks, and implementing specific security controls. The standard is used across various industries to ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, enhance customer trust, and provide a competitive advantage. It also supports operational efficiency, business continuity, and third-party assurance.

Data diodes are critical for ISO 27001 compliance, providing unidirectional data flow to prevent unauthorized access and data exfiltration. By enforcing strict network segmentation, data diodes isolate sensitive information, ensuring robust access control and secure communication channels. This hardware-enforced security mechanism protects against sophisticated cyber threats and ensures the integrity and confidentiality of critical data.
