Illustrative deployment scenario
One-Way Data and File Release
An illustrative evaluation model in which approved reports, batch exports, and files are released one way from the Source Zone and made available as copies for subsequent workflows in the Destination Zone.
This content is only for identifying source, hardware-enforced one-way boundary, and destination conditions.

Complete Data Path
Source / Source Zone
Source Zone systems and data
- Sources
- Report and batch-export jobs, Approved source file locations
- Data
- Operational reports and batch data, File content approved for release
Hardware-enforced boundary
Hardware-enforced one-way boundary
Source Modulesource-to-destination one-way fiber data transferReceiving ModuleWithin the listed hardware version, topology, and test scope, the Source Module receives files from approved source locations and sends them across the specified physical one-way link as source-to-destination one-way fiber data transfer; the Receiving Module then receives the files and provides file and destination-facing interfaces.
Destination / Destination Zone
Destination Zone systems and uses
- Destinations
- File-processing and analytics systems, Subsequent import workflows
- Use
- For the Destination Zone to obtain file copies created by the Receiving Module for analysis, retention, or approved subsequent import.
Evaluation inputs
Evaluation Considerations
- 01
Define releasable source locations, file types, and approval workflows.
- 02
Confirm file volume, update frequency, and acceptable loss conditions.
- 03
Confirm destination naming, integrity-checking, retention, and import requirements.
