WF-Flip
The Waterfall FLIP is a type of Unidirectional Gateway whose orientation can be physically reversed, enabling safe scheduled updates to OT networks without the vulnerabilities firewalls always introduce. The FLIP is deployed to routinely provide safe automatic updates such as antivirus signatures, batch production orders, and security updates.
How it works
Connect
To a wide variety of industrial data sources
Protect
The OT network with hardware-enforced technology
Replicate
OT data, servers and devices to the IT network in real time
Reverse
Orientation periodically for safe updates of OT systems
Benefits
Real-time monitoring with safe updates
Disciplined, scheduled, secure updates to unidirectionally-protected networks
Defeats online cyber attacks
Reducing down-time, equipment damage, environmental & public safety incidents and ensuring operational continuity by preventing cyber attacks
Extensive connector library
Assures compatibility with industrial data sources, even in complex fleet-wide deployments
Self contained
Network appliance with a simple web-based user interface, without the need to install hosts or software on industrial or IT networks
