KVM SWITCH LINE

Published in March-April 2021 Issue

Black Box unveils new products in the Black Box Secure KVM Switch line designed to address the more stringent requirements of the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) Protection Profile 4.0, these new Secure KVM Switches from Black Box provides enhanced security against potential data leakage and hacking in applications including military and defense, transportation, education, healthcare, government, and banking and finance.

The Black Box Secure KVM Switch line provides port isolation between networks, ensuring no data is leaked between secure ports and the outside world. Built with true data-path isolation between systems and networks, these switches help prevent hardware tampering and safeguard the network from accidental transfer, unauthorized access, or compromise of critical data. As users control multiple computers through a single keyboard, mouse and up to four video displays, air gap isolation between all connected systems ensures the secure transfer of files. Similar to previous generation Black Box Secure KVM Switches, new switches in the NIAP 4.0 certified product line offers filters and the data detection and protection features needed to ensure the security of information sent between the PC and peripherals. The hardware enables reliable protection of vulnerable peripherals shared by classified or secure networks while preventing threats from connections with unauthorized or untrusted peripheral devices.
