Columbia, MD, Nov. 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Owl Cyber Defense Solutions (“Owl”), the global market leader in trusted cross domain data transfer for critical networks in government, defense, and critical infrastructure, today announced the latest release of Owl Talon™, which includes integration with a revolutionary new all-in-one PCIe data diode card – Owl Talon One™.
The new data diode card will enable Federal agencies and critical infrastructure providers to leverage Commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) PCs or Servers as data diodes. This effectively isolates sensitive systems and eliminates the risk of cyberattacks on vital national assets.

These container-based add-ons allow organizations to customize their data transfer solutions with the protocols and applications most relevant to their unique needs.
Engineered for full compatibility with previous Owl platforms, this release ensures a seamless upgrade path for customers with existing Owl hardware. This backward compatibility maximizes ROI and extends the lifecycle of prior investments, providing long-term value and streamlined adoption.
