Unidirectional network



A Unidirectional Network (also referred to as a Data Diode) is a network cable or connection modified to allow data to travel only in one direction, used in guaranteeing information security. They are most commonly found in high security environments such as defence, where they serve as connections between two or more networks of differing security classifications.
