Application Control as Essential Control

Since the creation of the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) Top 35 Strategies in February 2010, application whitelisting has been ranked by ASD as an essential control to prevent targeted cyber intrusions.

Proactive Security Strategy

Airlock removes the ability for attackers to execute malicious and unknown code. Therefore, significantly increasing the difficulty of attack, blocking never before seen malware and removing core tools that attackers need.

Application Whitelisting is considered by the Australian Signals Directorate to be an essential cyber security strategy

Configured uniquely in every instance

Each Airlock deployment results in a unique whitelist according to customer needs. Therefore, attackers are unable to test their attacks against Airlock before attacking your organisation, as your security is unique.

Airlock enables you to implement application whitelisting at scale, with minimal operational overhead.

 

Complete file visibility and control

Airlock verifies, monitors and records all file executions across the organisation. Therefore, significantly increasing the ability for organisations to understand, detect and respond to malicious activity. Airlock provides organisations with powerful protection and detection capabilities. Airlock was created to make implementing and maintaining application whitelisting in an enterprise environment secure and easy to manage.

The Strategies to Mitigate Targeted Cyber Intrusions is informed by the Australian Signals Directorates (ASD) experience in operational cyber security, including responding to serious cyber incidents and performing vulnerability assessments and penetration testing for Australian government agencies.
