Application control has strengthened endpoint security and now needs better performance
Pros and Cons
  • "What made Airlock Digital Application Control different is the features and options we had to approach a single problem."
  • "In Airlock Digital Application Control, there are areas for improvement which, more specifically being a security tool, relate to the performance issues that end-user devices are experiencing because of the tool."

What is our primary use case?

My use case for Airlock Digital Application Control is application control.

What is most valuable?

The best features of Airlock Digital Application Control include the ability to block using publishers, path rules, and many features that fit our purpose. The main thing would be blocking all and allowing only specific applications, which is the approach we are following.

Airlock Digital Application Control helps improve my auditability and governance over policies because it can be logged and we can see who made changes and for what purpose. We have our own internal standards defined so that whenever people make changes, they should have obtained all the approvals and the comments are updated with the request details and all those things.

I have noticed that Airlock Digital Application Control has improved the way my organization functions as it is more of a security tool. With technology transitioning so fast with artificial intelligence, we wanted to be careful about what is getting executed in each and every endpoint device. In that aspect, we were looking at a solution where only what we allowlist is getting executed.

What needs improvement?

In Airlock Digital Application Control, there are areas for improvement which, more specifically being a security tool, relate to the performance issues that end-user devices are experiencing because of the tool. It is getting improved on a version-to-version upgrade basis, but I would say that is one major area to improve. Otherwise, whatever is defined on the product works as expected.

The performance aspect of Airlock Digital Application Control could be improved.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Airlock Digital Application Control for almost a year.

How are customer service and support?

I would rate the technical support of Airlock Digital Application Control as nine.

How was the initial setup?

I find that the deployment of Airlock Digital Application Control was very straightforward.

The deployment of Airlock Digital Application Control was staged, but otherwise, we did not have any issues during the deployment. Everything went smooth. We have devices across the regions, so we usually stage it by regions such as APAC and EMEA.

What was our ROI?

Time-wise, I would say that Airlock Digital Application Control saves a lot of time. Monitoring a fleet of devices will take a team's effort, but we three or four people are working on this, and it is quite easy. Integrating to other monitoring tools saves a lot of time.

I would say Airlock Digital Application Control saves around thirty percent of our time.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I compare Airlock Digital Application Control with other vendors such as ThreatLocker, Carbon Black, and BeyondTrust based on the proof of concept we did with other competitive tools. What made Airlock Digital Application Control different is the features and options we had to approach a single problem. We have the capability of blocking or allowing publishers or even more granularly, up to a device or a device group, which gives us that agility.

What other advice do I have?

Approximately three thousand to four thousand devices use Airlock Digital Application Control.

The users of Airlock Digital Application Control are global, not just based in India.

I would recommend Airlock Digital Application Control to people who are looking to manage endpoint computers to enhance their security. I gave this review a rating of seven out of ten.

Strict governance has been met as we manage user privileges and endpoint security with confidence
Pros and Cons
  • "Using the policy management tool provided by Airlock Digital Application Control is very beneficial and completely aligns with the compliance and governance expectations of the client."
  • "Some of the vulnerabilities that are meant for CVEs specific to Airlock Digital Application Control need to be addressed in newer versions."

What is our primary use case?

The DevOps team uses the REST API for Airlock Digital Application Control, but I am not part of that team, so I am not directly administering or controlling or using the REST APIs tool.

The pre-sales team handles the pricing for Airlock Digital Application Control; I am the technical person who looks after the configuration and administration according to the requirements of the client.

What is most valuable?

We are using the policy change history in Airlock Digital Application Control.

According to the governance, procedures, policies, and SOPs defined within the client environment, which are quite strict, Airlock Digital Application Control provides user-level privileges. Using the policy management tool provided by Airlock Digital Application Control is very beneficial and completely aligns with the compliance and governance expectations of the client.

The endpoint security feature of Airlock Digital Application Control is very beneficial, as are some of the products that have been integrated with Airlock Digital Application Control, making it a very supportive feature.

What needs improvement?

Some of the vulnerabilities that are meant for CVEs specific to Airlock Digital Application Control need to be addressed in newer versions. This is the improvement that I would suggest, because zero-day exploits are being administered by threat actors on a daily basis, and from a cybersecurity point of view, I need it to be more resilient to vulnerabilities.

For how long have I used the solution?

During my total career of 13 years, I have used Airlock Digital Application Control with one of my clients who had deployed this solution, and I had been working on that product for more than a year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I have not faced any lagging, crashing, or downtime with Airlock Digital Application Control for a while, so we are satisfied with it, and every user management is satisfactory.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We have not performed any scalability adjustments for Airlock Digital Application Control because the initial product that we deployed is serving the number of users well. I think there is a license available so we can purchase it and upgrade to the amount of users that is needed, though for now we do not need to upgrade and have not felt the need to do that.

How are customer service and support?

We engage with the customer support portal for Airlock Digital Application Control on and off to get troubleshooting guides or to have issues resolved where we are stuck, and they are very helpful.

Technically, a device always has some operational issues, and this is not specific to Airlock Digital Application Control but applies to any device, such as Cisco, Huawei, Juniper, or any big names in the market, as they always have issues or require troubleshooting. What I found is that their support team is quite technical, and their approach in understanding and resolving the issue is very direct and robust.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

Initial deployment of Airlock Digital Application Control is very user-friendly.

The deployment of Airlock Digital Application Control took about a week because I had to configure each policy and each connectivity to our network step-wise. The integration was easy, but the assignment of the policies due to the load of the users was a cumbersome task. Once the users were added, then it was good to go.

What about the implementation team?

I had support from my senior staff for the deployment of Airlock Digital Application Control. As the L2 person, I had to get help from the L3 for some configurations, and meanwhile, the L1 staff also assisted me during the integration and the issues that were faced, and we troubleshot until it was resolved.

What other advice do I have?

The graphical user interface provided by Airlock Digital Application Control is very user-friendly, and configuration management is easy, so this is what I like about it the most.

Some of our clients are using the Cisco ISE product and some of them are using the PAM solution, so there are different options they are using according to their own choice, but I would prefer Airlock Digital Application Control to be a good product and a useful one.

I would rate this review a 9 out of 10.
