Today's legacy data transfer systems are overrun by the growing volume and variety of data being transferred. Owl Computing Technologies provides inherently robust, enterprise-scale data transfer products, designed to address the pressing performance and security issues of transferring today's data requirements cross-domain. At the core of every secure data transfer system provided by Owl, the DualDiodeT controlled interface ensures real-time information delivery, while enforcing a strict one-way transfer policy-at the hardware-level, at both Owl connection endpoints.
This unconditional policy establishes double-blind operation between communicating networks. One-way design ensures that neither Owl endpoint (send-only or receive-only) requires a trusted state or verified trust condition with the other endpoint.
Beyond this trust-nothing connection core, independent applications enforce one-way transfer in all user data formats to execute any specific cross-domain objective between communicating networks, including: streaming video sessions, high resolution images, files & directories, TCP traffic, and terabyte file transfer.
The DualDiode hardware platform and software applications align with a wide variety of computer environments and operating systems, including Windows, Solaris, and Linux. Trusted Solaris and Secure Linux -- Red Hat ES4 -- are also supported.
Owl Computing Technologies
DualDiode One-Way Transfer Systems
Directory File Transfer System (DFTS)
Transfer of files and directory structures in native format
UDP Packet Transfer System (UPTS)
UDP socket-based packet transfer, including streaming video, syslog, SNMP messages
TCP Packet Transfer System (TPTS)
TCP/IP socket-based communications, including secure printing. TPTS is also capable of moving files and directories when integrated with Owl Remote File Transfer Service RFTS
Secure Network Packet Transfer System (SNTS)
Ideal for a mixture of UDP and TCP packets, where data format flexibility is a prime consideration. SNTS includes integration with Remote File Transfer Service RFTS, which provides TCP-based file transfer capability
Secure Video Transfer System(SVTS)
Securely transfers video streams (exploiting UDP datagram transport) between two networks – low-to-high security, peer-to-peer, and high-to-low. SVTS secures real-time transfer of high quality video collected by a wide variety of sources (UAVs, UGVs, video surveillance, etc)
Remote File Transfer Service (RFTS)
Designed to complement high security network policies in environments where protocols such as FTP and NFS are disallowed. RFTS employs a single TCP socket for communication, and transfers files to and from desktop/servers and DualDiode platform servers
Owl Release Management System (ORMS)
Designed to support reliable human content-review to ensure safe release of information from high security enclaves in a manner consistent with existing security policies. Operates as a network service permitting multiple, authorized users
Owl ScanFile Management System (OSMS)
Supports efficient and safe transfer of data from lower security to higher security networks -- processes document malware scanning and quarantine subsystems – and operates as a network service permitting multiple, authorized users.
Large File Transfer System
This specialized package includes the Directory/File Transfer System DFTS (Windows version), recommended server configuration, and applicable support services.
Owl TSABI OWT System
Named on the Unified Cross-Domain Management Office U-CDMO baseline 1.1, this system is comprised of Owl Secure Communication System Send-only driver, Owl Secure Communication System Receive-only driver; Owl Send-only communication card (v4, 3.3 volt), Owl Receive-only communication card (v4, 3.3 volt); 5-meter fiber optic cable; test and labeling of system components; one-year software technical services; and one-year hardware warranty.
The Owl TSABI OWT System is the commercial component of the GOTS TSABI OWT product/solution on the baseline list for low-to-high transfer, UNCLASS TO TS/SCI.
Owl Release Management Service (single seat)
Annual license for ORMS content-scanning/review software, when DFTS is already deployed. Fee includes product updates and hotline service & support.
Owl ScanFile Management Service (single seat)
Annual license for OSMS malware/virus scanning software, when DFTS is already deployed. Fee includes product updates and hotline service & support.
