Chapter 1
Introduction
Overview
The ATEN Secure KVM Switch series is NIAP-certified and compliant with NIAP PP 3.0 (Protection
Profile for Peripheral Sharing Switch version 3.0) requirements, satisfying the latest security requisites
set by the U.S. Department of Defense for peripheral sharing switches. Compliance ensures maximum
information security while sharing a single set of HIDs (keyboards, mouse, speakers, and CAC Reader)
between multiple computers. Conformity with Protection Profile v3.0 certifies that other USB
peripherals cannot be connected to the console ports of the Secure KVM Switch, and that only a
keyboard and mouse are accommodated, therefore providing high-level security, protection and
safekeeping of data.
The ATEN Secure KVM Switch hardware security includes tamper-evident tape, chassis intrusion
detection, and tamper-proof hardware, while software security includes restricted USB connectivity –
non-HIDs (Human Interface Devices) are ignored when switching – an isolated channel per port that
makes it impossible for data to be transferred between secure and unsecure computers, and automatic
clearing of the keyboard and mouse buffer when switching port focus.
By combining physical security with controlled USB connectivity and controlled unidirectional data
flow from devices to connected computers only, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch series gives you the
means to consolidate multiple workstations of various security classification levels with one keyboard,
monitor and mouse (KVM) console.
Note:
1. The National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) is a United States government initiative to
meet the security testing needs of IT consumers and manufacturers. It is operated by the National
Security Agency (NSA) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
2. The ATEN Secure KVM Switch series additionally satisfies Protection Profile version 3.0 for
Peripheral Sharing Switch (PSS).

mechanical intrusion is detected, the switch will be permanently disabled and all the front panel
LEDs (except the Power LED) will flash continuously. If the switches’ enclosure appears breeched
or all the LEDs are flashing continuously, stop using it, remove it from service immediately and
contact your ATEN dealer.
3. Any attempt to open the switches enclosure will activate the chassis intrusion detection security,
which will render it inoperable and void the warranty.
4. The ATEN Secure KVM Switch cannot be upgraded, serviced or repaired.
5. The ATEN Secure KVM Switch is equipped with active always-on chassis intrusion detection
security. Never attempt to open the enclosure. Any attempt to open the enclosure will permanently
damage and disable the switch.
6. The ATEN Secure KVM Switch contains an internal battery which is non-replaceable. Never
attempt to replace battery or open the switches’ enclosure.
Use always qualified and authorized peripheral devices
1. For security, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch supports only standard USB or PS/2 keyboard/mouse
(or pointing device). Do not connect a wireless keyboard/mouse, or any keyboard/mouse with an

Operation
Powering On
When you power on, reset, or power cycle the ATEN Secure KVM Switch, the switch will perform a
self-test to check the unit’s integrity and security functions.
During the self-test
�
All Port and CAC LEDs will turn ON and then OFF.
�
The KVM focus will be switched to port 1 when the self-test completes successfully (port 1 LED
lights bright orange).
Self-test failure
In the case of a self-test failure, the Secure KVM Switch becomes inoperable, with front panel LED
combinations indicating the potential cause of the failure (such as a button jam or KVM integrity
compromise)
�
A pre-defined combination of port and CAC LEDs indicate the cause of the failure.
�
If all front panel LEDs (except the Power LED) flash continuously, it means KVM tampering is
detected or a self-test failure has occurred (except for Pushbutton jam; see below)
�
If Pushbutton jam is detected, both the port’s LEDs will flash.
For security, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch becomes inoperable if a self-test fails. Please verify your
KVM installation, pushbuttons, and power cycle the Secure KVM Switch if this should happen. If the
self-test failure remains, stop using the ATEN Secure KVM Switch immediately, remove it from
service and contact your ATEN dealer.
After the ATEN Secure KVM Switch is powered on and ready, power on your computers. By default
the ATEN Secure KVM Switch will switch to port 1 after a successful self-test.
The ATEN Secure KVM Switch filters and emulates both a mouse and keyboard on each port after the
unit is powered on. If the keyboard, mouse, monitor, or Smart card / CAC reader fails to operate
properly, make sure that you are using the appropriate peripherals (qualified and authorized
peripherals); then power off the ATEN Secure KVM Switch, check all the cable connections, and
power on the unit again.
ATEN Secure KVM User Manual

Manual Switching
For increased security, the ATEN Secure KVM Switch offers manual port-switching only. This is
achieved by pressing the port selection pushbuttons located on the unit’s front panel.
Press and release a port selection pushbutton to bring the KVM focus to the computer attached to its
corresponding port (see Port ID Numbering, below). To meet maximum security and channel isolation
requirements, keyboard, mouse, video, audio, and USB CAC reader ports will be switched together.
The Selected Port LED lights orange to indicate that the computer attached to its corresponding port
has the KVM focus (keyboard, mouse, monitor, audio, and CAC reader).
The PC that has the port focus should be able to detect the peripherals after port switching.
If the PC fails to detect the keyboard, mouse, or CAC card reader:
- Verify that the keyboard, mouse, and/or CAC card reader is qualified.
- Verify if the keyboard, mouse, or CAC reader hasn’t failed.
- For USB CAC card reader (USB authentication device), please make sure the USB CAC cable has
been securely connected, and the CAC function is enabled.
- For USB CAC card reader port, please contact your administrator to verify if the device has been
authorized.
Port ID Numbering
Each KVM port on the ATEN Secure KVM Switch is assigned a port number (1–2 for the 2-Port
models; 1–4 for the 4-Port models; 1–8 for 8-Port models). The port numbers are marked on the rear of
the switch. See Rear View, page 7. The port ID of a computer is derived from the KVM port number it
is connected to.
