unsecure data from re-entering the classified network. Benefits: protect assets and data, block access to the
secure area, and prevent manipulation of secure data.
The figure below shows a secure network that needs to be updated with data from an unsecure external source, where
it can be analyzed and used to make key decisions. Unidirectional communication ensures no data is able to leave the
classified area. Benefits: maintain integrity of data in secured area, block classified data from leaking out of the secured
area, and allow databases to be updated with current information.
