Abstract :
This paper describes breakthrough cyber security technology developed by 4thDTtrade security that addresses today´s critical need for legacy system security, particularly SCADA networks, that rely on network communication systems. This technology transcends current security methods and guarantees absolute security for network communications and data storage. The 4thDTtrade security solution allows the Internet to function as intended - an efficient point-to-point transport medium. This hardware/firmware solution performs quantum cryptographic payload scrambling, allows OS platform independence, ease of integration, low cost of ownership, and eliminates the need for enterprise key management. This makes 4thDTtrade security an ideal solution to address the SCADA, legacy system, and network database security issues that are a critical need today. Research prototypes of 4thDTtrade security hardware are being evaluated now.
