AIR GAP SYSTEM AND METHOD USING OUT OF BAND SIGNALING

A method of communicating and securing data on a network with an air-gap device that includes switching of a first air-gap such that a second air-gap is generated between a second port and a first communication circuit to one or more devices, and such that a second operable connection is generated between a first communication circuit to the one or more devices and a third port. The air gap-device includes a first interface comprising a first port, the first interface being part of the first communication circuit to the one or more devices a second interface comprising the second port; a third interface comprising the third port; and a physical relay array block operably coupled to and corresponding to the first, second and third interfaces, with the physical relay array block configured for physical switching between a first and second configuration that generates the first and second switching.
