The big issues Silo solves for me are security in research, the ability to work around security protocols and regional restrictions, and safety in browser inherently unsafe websites. Knowing I won’t be compromised and can even touch malware without fear is pretty satisfying.” — Administrator in Security and Investigations.

This was so unique and so helpful for my work that I don’t care if I sound like a commercial. It’s going to make analyst jobs just that much easier to do.
Jon Dimaggio, Chief Security Strategist
Silo gives us the ability to not worry about the language barrier [and] to obfuscate where we’re coming from. We may not tip off a bad actor. … If you want to get deep into an investigation. You don’t want to alert the bad guys that you’re taking a closer look.
Tom Bakry, MPGSOC manager

Silo solved my need to keep creating custom firewall rules for my team to look at unknown, suspicious, malicious domains in a safe environment.

frequently asked questions
How does Silo mask my identity while I conduct an investigation?
With Silo, you can completely customize how you appear to sites and the people you interact with online. Manipulate a variety of your device details including language, time zone, and keyboard settings, as well as the browser, OS, and other elements. Appear to be browsing from any of Authentic8’s dozens of global egress nodes, and show a local IP address that never refers back to you or your organization.
Can I safely access the dark web with Silo?
Yes, dark web access is seamlessly integrated within Silo and its suite of analyst tools. You do not need a separate, standalone dark web browser. This integration provides investigators with full isolation from dark web cyberthreats (e.g., malware-laden sites, forums, marketplaces) and anonymity from counter-surveillance efforts malicious actors use.
Will Silo save my investigation research?
Yes, Silo integrates with Authentic8 Secure Storage: an encrypted, audited, and cloud-based storage repository for users and groups. Investigators may be required to capture and collect content as part of their process. And to maintain efficacy of potential evidence, a proper chain of control and evidentiary requirements must be met.
How does Silo handle chain of custody and evidentiary requirements?
Collected data needs to be logged, attributed to an analyst, and checked for validity. Chain of custody protections are critical to proper collection. When using Silo collection tools — whether manual or automated — all aspects of the process are logged and available for post-facto review.
Is Silo a FedRAMP-authorized service?
Yes, Silo is a FedRAMP-authorized service. It has been assessed and approved as a cloud service offering (CSO) that meets the stringent security requirements to process, store, and transmit federal government data.
