Valiant Communications successfully completes Evaluation of
Hardware-Based Network Isolation (Kill) Switch Equipment for Mission-Critical Networks.
Valiant Communications Ltd., announced successful evaluation testing with the Indian Armed Forces (Classified) of its Hardware-Based Network Isolation (Kill) Switch Equipment, designed to provide a purpose-built, deterministic, hardware-enforced network separation for mission-critical operational environments.
The Valiant solution focuses on providing cyber resilience, secure segmentation and network isolation, with operational continuity in an event of a cyber incident.
Valiant cyber-security equipment validated the solution’s ability to enforce immediate physical-layer isolation of designated network links and zones, supporting emergency response actions during cyber incidents, insider-threat containment, or physical security events. Specific technical data, and operational procedures are not being disclosed due to security considerations.
“This successful evaluation marks an important milestone in strengthening cyber resilience for mission critical systems and environments that require deterministic behaviour and predictable failover outcomes,” said Inder Mohan Sood, CEO & CTO, Valiant Communications Ltd. “In complex operational environments where downtime, ambiguity, or uncontrolled lateral movement can have real-world consequences, a hardware-enforced isolation provides an additional layer of assurance beyond traditional firewall and software controls. A key element in modern operational resilience is the ability to contain, in real time, and without depending solely on firewall and software controls that may be degraded during an advanced intrusions”.
The Valiant ‘Beyond the Firewall’ Hardware-Based Network Isolation (Kill) Switch Equipment is designed for deployment across high-consequence environments, including defence platforms, shore establishments, operational command centers, industrial and utility facilities, secure data centers and sensitive digital assets, where segmentation integrity and rapid containment are crucial. The hardware architecture supports integration with existing security and operations ecosystems, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, SIEM/SOC, and physical intrusion detection, while providing out-of-band activation options such as multiple user triggers and serial control interfaces based on customer requirements.
Valiant Communications Ltd., is an OEM focused on secure network and cyber-resilience solutions for mission-critical and industrial-grade environments. The company develops systems engineered for high-availability operations, industrial harsh environmental conditions, and rigorous assurance requirements.
