Forcing Physical Interlocks into Data Transit and Storage Replication

Traditional software-based security cannot prevent data destruction or unauthorized cloning when authorized credentials are compromised. This presentation introduces a hardware-level physical intervention approach with a zero-OS FPGA architecture to overcome vulnerabilities at the L3/L4 layer. This invisible Layer-2 transparent bridge, lacking IP or MAC addresses, performs sub-nanosecond-level gate-level Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) on the pipeline. When high-risk storage commands (deletion, unauthorized data transfer, etc.) are detected at the silicon level, the data flow is hardware-intercepted and held in a "Catch-and-Release" buffer until a physical human confirmation is received.
