    摘要: A cyber firewall for electronic instruments e.g. cameras isolates embedded controllers from hacking and hijacking. Positioned between a public wide area network and an exclusive private LAN, a bridge blocks emissions to untrusted recipients as well as cyber attacks on other networks. A routing component approves or suppresses traffic across the bridge by transforming IP addresses. A detection component transforms packet content by signing, suppressing, or encrypting according to a profile. The double firewall stops a camera from leaking images or being slaved into an attack bot. A system and architecture isolates image and instrument streams from other network traffic and interrupts, examines, and protects the content from unrecognized recipients. A dual system isolates cameras and other devices from a transaction-type network. When an instrument attempts any “extra” communications with the outside world the sender is disconnected, disabled, repaired and or replaced and the content transformed.
