Create and manage secure allowlists in dynamically changing computing environments. Proactively prevent malicious code from running, before any damage occurs, using intuitive workflows, instead of large and hard to manage ‘firewall style’ rulesets.
Airlock provides centralised visibility over all files within an organisation. Discover when a file was first seen in an environment, where it came from and how it was executed.
The Airlock Digital Enforcement Agent is lean, with small policy sizes and minimal impact on endpoint resources across Windows, Linux and macOS.
The addition of Airlock Digital to the Crayon security solutions portfolio provides partners with the ability to provide world class allowlisting solutions to their customers.
Together, Crayon and Airlock Digital can provide and end-to-end service to start, develop or add more value to your existing catalogue.
Implementation time between customers vary, however many customers implement the solution, including the enablement of enforcement mode in 4-8 weeks. The major factors that influence this timeframe are how standardised software within the customers environment is and how often an administrator tunes policy within the solution.
The Airlock Enforcement Agent currently supports enforcement of allowlisting on the following operating systems:
Microsoft Windows
Linux
macOS
Airlock Digital prioritizes compliance against The Australian Cyber Security Centre Essential Eight Mitigation Strategies and is committed to making changes to the solution as the requirements change. The Airlock platform is tailored to help customers achieve Maturity Level 3 for Application Control.
For external logging of all platform data in real-time, Airlock integrates with: Splunk, Graylog, SumoLogic, Common Event Format (CEF) (Qradar,) Generic Syslog, Local JSON File
Airlock has the capability of exporting most data within the platform to common formats like .CSV & .XML
Handling scenarios where new applications are being introduced and/or a user wants to run something that’s currently getting blocked is essential to a successful Allowlisting implementation.
Airlock incorporates a One Time Pad (OTP) functionality which handles these exceptions through a time-based audit mode (can be Self Serviced and/or through a service desk workflow). During this session, one can run unapproved files. After the code expires/is revoked, the device goes back to the original policy. The Airlock admin can then review what the user ran during this session and make Allowlist updates if required.
Delivering competitive differentiation, new revenue streams, and enhanced Essential 8 compliance outcomes for MSPs and their customers.
