LONDON, May 16, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Oakdoor, a pioneer in hardware-enforced security
solutions, which is part of PA Consulting (PA), and Nexor, the
leading specialist in Secure Information Exchange, have announced a
strategic partnership to advance a high assurance cross domain
solution for secure data sharing. The partnership will start to
create highly integrated software guarding and hardware
verification solutions – with the aim of making access to data more
secure and manageable for customers using multiple security domains
worldwide.
Oakdoor has revolutionised data diodes in recent years, raising
security standards and diode performance whilst reducing their
complexity and cost. Meanwhile, Nexor has over 30 years' experience
in delivering secure information exchange at the highest level. By
working together and sharing their expertise, the two companies
will work to make the most secure cross domain solutions available
to a wider range of customers.
The partnership will enable Nexor's GuarDiode to be combined
with Oakdoor's cutting-edge data diodes to form a powerful cross
domain solution, which will deliver unparalleled protection and
resilience against evolving cyber threats. This is because Nexor's
software detects and removes malicious content by validating data
against comprehensive information management policies. This allows
controlled filtering of sensitive information assets into and out
of critical systems. Meanwhile, Oakdoor's UK CAPS approved data
diodes are a critical hardware component for eliminating
infiltration or exfiltration attack vectors within the cross domain
solution.
Tim Lunn, Founder and Head of
Product at Oakdoor, said: "We are excited to announce our
partnership with Nexor, which aims to bring this high assurance
cross domain solution to the market. By integrating Oakdoor's
National Cyber Security Centre approved diodes with Nexor's proven
protocol and management software system, we are creating a more
holistic solution for customers that are working at the highest
classification levels.
Tim Thompson, Managing
Director at Nexor, said: We are thrilled to partner with
Oakdoor, part of PA Consulting, combining Nexor's advanced software
with robust hardware to enhance market support and innovation. By
harnessing exceptional engineering prowess alongside advanced
software and hardware development, this strategic alliance
positions both companies to pioneer more cohesive and impactful
solutions, steadfastly advancing our pledge to excellence and
customer satisfaction."
