Move data across the gap. Prove it arrived.

PIGEON is a portable transfer toolkit for air-gapped, constrained and legacy networks. It copies, packs, or ships changes by hand-carried batch, then re-checks every file at the destination before it calls the job done.

Every run ends with a receipt like this, built from the files that actually landed.

Built for the networks other tools assume away

PIGEON runs where there is no internet, no install rights, long file paths, slow links, and a technician working alone. It was designed around environments like these:

  • Communications shelters and CSRR sites
  • Submarine and shipboard LANs
  • Tactical networks
  • Analyst workstations producing ArcGIS Pro products
  • Isolated maintenance and backup networks

Why teams choose PIGEON

It never says “done” over a missing file

After every transfer, PIGEON re-hashes what actually arrived and compares it with the source. A short write, a full disk, or a dropped share becomes a clear failure, not a quiet success. The receipt lists every file and its SHA-256, so you can hand it to whoever needs proof.

Air-gap updates without a second copy

For disconnected systems, PIGEON keeps a small record of what the far side already holds, then packs only the new and changed files into a signed batch you can carry across. Unchanged files never travel. The far side checks the signature and its own starting state before writing anything, and verifies the whole result afterward.

The same workflow runs on Windows and Linux, in either direction.

Made for the technician on shift at 0200

A readiness check tests the source, the destination, free space, long-path support, the license, and the clock before a single byte moves, and reports every problem at once. When something does fail, the message says what happened, whether the destination is usable, and what to do next, with a stable error code you can read over the phone.

Accountability your ISSM can check

Every run is written to a hash-chained audit log that shows if a record was edited, removed, or reordered. Packages can be sealed and signed, so a technician can confirm the copy in front of them is exactly what was issued, even after a USB stick and an antivirus scan.

Drop the folder in and run

PIGEON is a single portable folder with a graphical app and a command-line tool. No installer, no internet connection, and no telemetry. Deep folder trees beyond the Windows 260-character limit are handled natively.
