NIAP-certified Secure KVM Switches

Many organizations have taken comprehensive measures to counter the ever-increasing size and complexity of cyber threats. But what happens when users work between systems with different security levels and sensitive data can be intercepted through an unsecured computer? This is where Secure KVM switches are the hidden champions at the user console. They use air-gap technology and other advanced features to prevent data leaks between computers, protect against EDID, Audio detection or KVM switch tampering. Black Box offers a wide range of NIAP PP PSD 4.0 certified Secure KVM Switches, offering the highest protection profile available on the market today as well as a range of NIAP 3.0 certified KVM Switches for existing installations.
