A method and system for sharing data between networks comprises an interface for receiving data from plural inputs; a policy-based router operationally connected to the interface, the policy-based router assigns security levels to the data based on security characteristics of the inputs and the policy-based router assigns virtual Internet protocol addresses to the data; a memory for retaining the data with the Internet protocol addresses, the memory being operationally connected to the policy-based router; a translator for converting the data into a standard format; and a network stack for transmitting the data to a network. The method includes assigning security levels to the data based on security characteristics of the inputs; assigning virtual Internet protocol addresses to the data; retaining the data with the Internet protocol addresses; converting the data into a standard format; and transmitting the data to a network.
