Secure (PPs 4.0) Multi-Video DVI-I KVM Switches

2- 4- and 8-port, dual- and quad-video head secure DVI/VGA KVM switches

PPs 4.0 NIAP Common Criteria Protection Profile certified, with audio support and an optional dedicated CAC port

Why Secure KVM?
Traditional non-secure KVM switches offer centralized control of multiple computers, but offer no absolute isolation between them. This exposes systems to the possibility of malicious damage and disruption, and acquisition of sensitive data from one computer to another.

iPGARD's secure KVM switch is designed for use in secure defense and intelligence applications where sensitive data must be protected. The switch is NIAP PPs 4.0 certified and equipped with the highest security features that meet today's information assurance safe control standards. The switch prevents data leakage between computers that can run at different security levels, eliminating any potential cyber threat.

Each model is equipped with internal anti-tamper switches, which sense attempts to open the device enclosure. Once the system identifies such an attempt, all the front panel LEDs will flash rapidly and the unit will become useless by shutting off connection with all attached PCs and peripherals disabling any functionality. The unit's enclosure is also protected with a tamper-evident seal to provide a visual evidence if the unit has been opened.

Ultra-Secure KVM Switching
iPGARD multi-video KVM switches are 2- 4- and 8-port, dual- or quad-head DVI-I KVM switches with an optional dedicated CAC port and support for 4K (3840x2160 @ 30Hz) resolution or dual-link (2560x1600 @ 60Hz) video. iPGARD multi-video DVI-I KVM switches allow users to control KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) operation on up to eight computers with DVI* monitors. They feature mechanical, electrical and optical signal isolation to prevent hacking and data leakage in environments where security is paramount.

With iPGARD multi-video DVI-I KVM switches, all data relays are controlled by inverted signals, shielding connections from outside intrusion by forcing them each to work one at a time. Each port uses its own isolated data channel and each unit features non-reprogrammable ROM to better protect the switch's functions. Better yet, iPGARD multi-video DVI-I KVM switches offer the highest security when accessing classified and public networks over the Internet through these isolated connections. By isolating connections between networks, iPGARD multi-video DVI-I KVM switches ensures no data is leaked between secure ports and the outside world.

iPGARD multi-video DVI-I KVM switches have clearly marked front-panel buttons for controlling the devices, so securely switching between sources is always simple. For high-grade secure switching made easy, look no further than iPGARD multi-video DVI-I KVM switches.

Optional CAC Support
Many secure KVM switches support CAC devices, such as smart-card and biometric readers, bolstering security when using the device. However, iPGARD takes CAC security even further, allowing users to assign specific peripheral devices to iPGARD KVM switch's CAC port. Once a peripheral device has been registered by an authenticated admin, users can then switch the connection between that device and the PC's along with KVM switching.

Keyboard and Mouse Emulation
The secure KVM emulates (simulates) the presence of a keyboard and mouse for every attached computer through a USB cable. Both selected and non-selected computers maintain a constant connection with the unit's keyboard-mouse emulation controllers, allowing for ultra-fast switching and restricting discovery of newly connected peripherals during switching operations. Emulation of keyboard and mouse also prevents direct connection between the peripherals and the connected computers, shielding systems from potential vulnerabilities.

Secure EDID Learn and Video Emulation
iPGARD multi-video DVI-I KVM switches simulate a generic EDID as default, allowing it to operate most of the connected monitors. Both selected and non-selected computers maintain a constant connection with the unit's video emulation controllers, allowing for ultra-fast switching and restricting discovery of newly connected monitors during switching operations. Upon activating the KVM, the unit will quickly and automatically learn new EDID for specific monitors. The unit then prevents unwanted and unsecure data from getting transmitted through DDC lines by means of secure EDID learning and emulation.
