OVERVIEW
Security Features
SECTIONSTable of Con tent s 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 82
The Belkin Secure DVI-I KVM Switch is the most advanced and
secure commercially available KVM Switch available today. Below is a
summar y of all the security features incorporated into the Switch.
Dedicated Process ors
The Switch features a dedicated processor per computer por t. This
keeps each computer running on different security levels physically
separated and secure at all times, and prevents any unintended data
leakage between computers.
No Memory Buffer
The Switch does not have a memor y buffer and does not have the
ability to store data. This prevents any keystrokes or other data
input from being unintentionally transferred as you switch between
computers, ensuring the integrity of your data.
Non-Reprogra mmable Firmware
The Switch features custom firmware that is not reprogrammable,
preventing the abilit y to tamper with the KVM logic.
Unidirectio nal Data Path s
Optical diodes used in USB data paths provide high isolation and
prevent data leakage.

Solid-Alumin um, Uni-Body Enclosure
The one-piece aluminum enclosure reduces the entry points into
the Switch’s electronics and minimizes radiated signals that can be
snoope d or intercepted.
Active Anti-Tamper Triggers
Active chassis anti-tampe r triggers prevent KVM electronics from
being accessed and tampered with.
Tamper-Evident Tape
A holographic security tamper-evident label is placed on the
enclosure to provide a visual indication if the Switch has been opened
or compromised.
Tamper-Proof Hardwar e
All integrated circuits are soldered directly to the printed circuit board
to prevent tampering with the components.

Protected Display Information
Protected DDC/EDID emulation prevents software weaknesses that
can cause data leakage while maintaining compatibility with the
console display.
USB Device Detecti on
Storage and other unsafe USB devices are rejected when connected
to the Switch. Only mouse and keyboard data are passed through.
Secure Packaging
“Tear away” packaging ensures secure delivery of the Switch as it is
routed to the end user.
NIAP List ing
The Switch is listed by the National Information Assurance Par tnership
(NIAP). It is NIAP Common Criteria validated to EAL 2+ (Evaluation
Assurance Level 2).
