Securing a computer? (lemmygrad.ml)

So I have a situation where I would like to keep data secure. In my mind if I'm working on a computer that has no network connection, this is the safest.

However, I may from time to time need to transfer data to this machine, which introduces a vulnerability. Any thoughts on how I could minimize the risk in this case?

Thanks for this reply, definitely giving me things to think about that I never would have thought to ask.

I would be concerned with both sensitive data leaving, and an infection being brought onto it during a file transfer.

Again, I appreciate you, and this all makes a lot of sense.
