Abstract
Systems and methods for two-way, secure, data communication within critical infrastructures are usable to protect critical infrastructure information while allowing real-time monitoring and remote access. Such communication systems and methods can be used to protect critical data by, for example, providing a single point of access via unidirectional, serial, non-routable connections. Additionally, data flow may be controlled by a first server that is not accessible outside of the critical infrastructure.
