Digital investigators face a common challenge: finding trusted, compatible tools that work seamlessly within secure investigation platforms. Testing, and integrating the right combination of extensions and applications while maintaining security and tradecraft standards has historically been time-consuming and complex. Silo Marketplace solves this problem.
What Is Silo Marketplace?
Silo Marketplace is a curated in-app platform accessible directly within Silo Workspace. It provides investigators with a centralized hub to discover, evaluate, and deploy browser extensions, web applications, and native applications that enhance investigation capabilities while maintaining Silo’s security and anonymity benefits.
The marketplace features both Authentic8-created solutions and third-party integrations, all reviewed and approved for compatibility and relevance to digital investigation use cases. Accessible only within Silo Workspace, the marketplace is policy-controlled at the organization level, and all activity is captured within standard Silo logs.
Free Tools from Authentic8
Silo Marketplace includes a suite of free browser extensions created by Authentic8 to enhance investigation workflows:
Silo Citation documents sources using the icz206 standard for evidence attribution. Silo Fang de-fangs malicious URLs for safe sharing without triggering security alerts. Silo Referrer enables HTTP referrer spoofing for controlled attribution. Silo Screen Recorder captures browser sessions for compliance and training purposes.
Trusted Partner Solutions
The marketplace features premium solutions from leading threat intelligence and OSINT vendors. Partners include Fivecast ONYX for social media and multi-source searching, Seerist for AI-driven threat intelligence and risk forecasting, and Overwatch Data for fraud and cyber threat intelligence.
Dark web investigators can access DarkOwl for dark web monitoring and intelligence. OSINT specialists can leverage Fivecast Matrix for multi-source intelligence gathering and ShadowDragon for automated data collection, link analysis, and monitoring across social media, dark web, and over 200 public sources. Additional partners include Wirescreen for digital risk monitoring and other specialized investigation tools. Further partners will be added in the future.
Benefits for Analysts and Administrators
For analysts, Silo Marketplace provides a one-stop shop to discover all critical Silo extensions and integrations in one place. Every application is verified by Authentic8 for compatibility and security. All solutions work directly within Silo Workspace and inherit Silo’s isolation, attribution, and anonymity protections. Investigators gain access to specialized tools for threat intelligence, OSINT, fraud investigation, and more without compromising security.
Administrators benefit from centralized discovery that helps analysts find approved tools without shadow IT risk. Access controls are available in the Admin Console, providing visibility into what solutions teams are using. Organizations can leverage Authentic8’s curation instead of evaluating every tool individually, reducing the vetting burden while maintaining security standards.
How It Works
Discovery is simple. Access Silo Marketplace from within Silo Workspace and browse by type: Extensions, Web Applications, or Native Applications. Filter by category tags including OSINT, Threat Intelligence, Dark Web, SOCMINT, Data Leaks, Anti-Fraud, and Publicly Available Information. Search for specific solutions or explore featured offerings.
Evaluation is straightforward. Review solution descriptions, features, pricing, security details, and compatibility information. All solutions are pre-vetted by Authentic8 for compatibility and relevance to digital investigation use cases.
Deployment varies by solution type. Browser extensions install directly via handoff to the Chrome Web Store. Web applications may require account creation or evaluation licenses depending on the partner. Native applications are promoted through the marketplace with provisioning handled within the Admin Console. Standardized lead capture forms on product pages enable users to request information, trials, or purchases.
