Standard equipment in every Q Series rack.
FireBreak is not an add-on you procure separately. It ships pre-integrated into every Q Series deployment as part of the sovereign security layer — wired, tested, and ready before your first workload goes live.
Pre-wired into every Q Series rack
FireBreak ships as a standard component of every Planck Red Q Series deployment. It sits at the network perimeter, pre-wired, pre-configured, and ready to act — no separate procurement, no integration effort from the customer.
SMS-triggered isolation — no internet required
An SMS command with 2FA/OTP triggers physical disconnection of up to 12 network ports. Critically, this works even when your internet connection is down or compromised — the control channel is independent of the network being isolated.
Zero-software attack surface during isolation
When FireBreak activates, there is no signal path — not even a protocol to attack. This remains effective even if your OS, hypervisor, and entire software stack have been compromised.
Per-port control: normally-on or normally-off
Each of the 12 ports can be independently configured. Q Series management traffic stays up while customer workload traffic is isolated — production and management planes remain independently controllable throughout an incident.
The security layer below everything else.
FireBreak operates at Layer 1 — below the OS, below the hypervisor, below every software stack that can be compromised. It is the only control that works when everything else has failed.
Security that workswhen everything else has failed.
Survive ransomware without losing control
When ransomware hits, FireBreak lets you isolate in seconds — even from a personal phone — without needing access to any compromised system.
Meet the strictest air-gap requirements
Defence contracts, CNI regulations, and sovereign cloud mandates require verifiable physical isolation. FireBreak provides auditable Layer 1 disconnect events with full timestamped logs.
Business continuity through physical control
Isolate compromised segments without shutting down the entire facility. Ring-fence an incident to one segment while the rest of the data center stays operational.
Compliance-grade audit trail
Every FireBreak event is logged with identity, OTP token, and timestamp — feeding directly into incident response reports and compliance documentation.
