- sterlind 6y agoWouldn't be so sure. Data is eventually copied out of the airgapped side, e.g. NSA exploits are developed in the airgap and copied to an attack staging server on the Internet. And there's one-way connectivity into the airgaps via data diodes. So it's possible that a sufficiently advanced malware got through the data diode, infected the airgap side and hitched a ride out over sneakernet.
