I appreciate several aspects of Airlock Digital Application Control. What I appreciate most is that it enforces discipline in the environment. It aligns well with least privilege principles because only approved software runs. That alone removes a large category of risk that traditional reactive tools still have to chase. The organization I am working with currently uses a variety of software and applications, and thus it becomes even more necessary to have a robust mechanism to safeguard our assets. Airlock works very well in this regard. I feel that with respect to Airlock Digital Application Control, the upgrade process is very straightforward and simple. There is no downtime required. If they roll out a new version, it is easy to upgrade to the latest version without any reboot. There is no downtime required to upgrade Airlock Digital Application Control to the latest version. This is something I really appreciate. Another aspect I can think about is clear audit visibility. In Airlock Digital Application Control console, you are able to get a log of everything. Even if I log into the console, there is an audit that a user, Mahesh, has logged in. If someone has added some hash or any kind of whitelisting has been done, everything is recorded. I have clear audit visibility. The most valuable part is the centralized policy management. I can have a centralized policy in place to support a list of servers. For example, I have a policy in place to protect all my workstations. Then I have a separate policy to protect my UNIX workstations. Similarly, a separate policy for Windows Server. I have centralized policy management, and it becomes very easy with respect to Airlock Digital Application Control in this regard. The proper governance and control that Airlock Digital Application Control provides helps to improve auditability and governance over our policies. I am working with a government organization. Here we have multiple teams using their own kind of software and applications. The problem is that without proper governance, there is a chance of data leakage or any threat entering into the network, as they all use their own kind of software and USB keys. With Airlock Digital Application Control, we have proper governance in place because by default, everything is blocked. We follow the policy of zero trust. Anything which is not known is completely blocked. We ensure that only the approved software is currently allowed. We also ensure that the baselining is in place. When we use different operating systems, like Windows workstations or any kind of Windows versions or Linux versions, we ensure that the operating system is baselined, which helps to stop a lot of unwanted noise. With this, we manage the entire infrastructure.
