- Channel-to-channel 80-dB crosstalk isolation protects against signal snooping.
- Permanently hard wired, preventing access from one CPU or network to the others.
- Now listed on NIAP website.
- The low radiated emissions profile meets the appropriate national requirements.
- External tamper-evident seals.
- Provides robust isolation between networks, so it's ideal for government applications that access classified networks in addition to public networks such as the Internet.
- Constructed with a solid metal case and a long-wearing switching mechanism.
- USB host controller erases entire RAM to prevent residual data remaining on channel.
- Dedicated DDC bus and EDID memory emulation at each port.
- Features a Common Access Card (CAC) reader, meeting the requirements of the Department of Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12).
- Clear, unmistakable channel selection.
- Non-Flash-upgradable ROM.
- To minimize electronic signaling, no common power supply.
The ServSwitch™ Secure KVM Switch with USB, EAL4+ Certified/TEMPEST Level I (Level A) Certified, VGA with Card Reader, surpasses the security profiles of most other KVM switches.
In addition to its superior hardware-based data-isolation features, the switch has been certified for Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance to Level 4+ (EAL4+), augmented by ALC_FLR.2 and ATE_DPT.2.
The Common Criteria is an international standardized process for information technology security evaluation, validation, and certification. The Common Criteria scheme is supported by the National Security Agency through the National Information Assurance Program (NIAP). EAL4+ itself defines a common set of tests to evaluate the security of an IT product relating to its supply chain, from design and engineering to manufacturing and distribution.
The ServSwitch Secure KVM Switch with USB, EAL4+ Certified/TEMPEST Level I (Level A) Certified, VGA provides control and separation of two PC CPUs/servers connected to secure and non-secure networks through just one keyboard, monitor, and mouse. Users can safely switch among the connected computers operating at different classification levels without worry.
Plus, it is TEMPEST USA NSTISSAM Level I and NATO SDIP-27 Level A certified. What this means is the low radiated emissions profile of the switch meets the appropriate requirements for conducted/radiated electromagnetic emissions.
The TEMPEST designation is required by military organizations. As a security standard, it pertains to technical security countermeasures, standards, and instrumentation that prevent or minimize the exploitation of vulnerable data communications equipment by technical surveillance or eavesdropping.
Also, the special Common Access Card (CAC) reader on this switch enhances its functions and gives you even more fail-safe security features.
