PacketRoo Data Diode

The NEOXPacketRoo is a specialized solution bundle featuring a physical data diode that enforces full galvanic isolation between networks while allowing unidirectional signal transmission, preserving the critical air gap. To eliminate any attack surface on the physical layer, operators can either use their own data transfer methods leveraging the PacketRoo’ s diode functionality or utilize the NEOXSecureFile- Transmitter software, which provides secure, granular, and one-way file transfer from OT to IT.

The PacketRoo, combined with the NEOXSecure-FileTransmitter, offers a scalable and high-performance solution for both Windows and Linux hosts, enabling seamless unidirectional data transmission. Each component of the bundle is also available separately, and if an existing data diode is already in place to bridge the air gap between networks, the NEOXSecureFileTransmitter remains fully vendor-agnostic. This flexibility also applies to the PacketRoo itself.

DESCRIPTION

The NEOXPacketRoo is a specialized cybersecurity solution bundle featuring a hardware-based data diode that enforces strict unidirectional data flow between operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) networks. Designed to maintain a true air gap architecture, it provides full galvanic isolation, ensuring that data can only move in one direction—from OT to IT—eliminating any possibility of reverse communication or external intrusion.
By removing bidirectional connectivity, PacketRoo significantly reduces the attack surface at the physical network layer. This makes it ideal for critical infrastructure, defense, industrial control systems, and high-security enterprise environments. Organizations can use their own transfer mechanisms, leveraging the diode’s unidirectional capability. Alternatively, they can deploy the NEOXSecureFileTransmitter software for secure, granular, and controlled file transfers from OT to IT systems.
The combined solution supports both Windows and Linux environments, enabling flexible deployment across heterogeneous infrastructures. It is also fully vendor-agnostic, allowing integration with existing data diode systems or third-party security architectures without dependency lock-in.

Highlights

  • Enforces strict one-way data flow (OT to IT) with hardware-based galvanic isolation

  • Supports real-time monitoring and integrity validation during data transfer
  • Provides tamper-proof, sealed hardware design for harsh and mission-critical environments
  • Ensures secure deployment with a fixed configuration to prevent setup errors
  • Suitable for military, industrial, and critical infrastructure use cases

Key Features

  • The NEOXPacketRoo delivers hardware-enforced security that guarantees deterministic, unidirectional data transmission. It integrates seamlessly with the NEOXSecureFileTransmitter, enabling secure file movement across isolated networks while preserving compliance and operational integrity. Built for resilience, it supports real-time anomaly detection, data integrity checks, and high-reliability transfer workflows.
  • Designed for scalability and interoperability, the solution works across modern IT and OT ecosystems without requiring proprietary dependencies. Its robust architecture ensures consistent performance in extreme conditions, making it ideal for environments where security and reliability are non-negotiable.
  • The NEOXPacketRoo stands as a critical foundation for secure data transfer. It ensures complete protection of sensitive networks while enabling controlled, monitored, and verifiable data movement across air-gapped systems.
