Deep Firewall Control
Block what shouldn't connect.
Untrusted programs and exploited LOLBins love to phone home. DFC slams the door shut. We inspect the reputation of every module—the slightest anomaly and all of a program's components get blocked.
Your network. Your rules. Zero exceptions.
Anomaly Detected? Everything Gets Blocked.
Traditional firewalls ask "where is it going?" We ask "who's trying to go—and what's their reputation?" DFC inspects every module of every program attempting network access. The slightest anomaly triggers a full lockdown of all that program's components.
Using correlational logic, we trace connections between executables, DLLs, and child processes. If one piece looks suspicious, everything related gets cut off. No partial measures, no gaps to exploit.
Living Off the Land? Not on Our Watch.
Attackers love abusing built-in Windows tools to fly under the radar. These "Living Off the Land Binaries" are legitimate tools turned into weapons. DFC blocks their network access when they're being exploited.
Windows Filtering Platform Powered
No flimsy wrappers here. DFC hooks directly into Windows Filtering Platform—the same infrastructure Windows Firewall uses. Kernel-level blocking that malware can't easily bypass. Rules persist across reboots and survive attempts to tamper.
Reputation-Based Module Inspection
Every module gets its reputation checked against multiple intelligence sources. We don't just look at the main executable—we inspect every DLL, every dependency, every component. One bad actor in the chain and the whole program loses network privileges.
Scan entire directories for suspicious executables. Inspect module reputation and create blocking rules for entire folders in seconds, not minutes.
Persistent Rules
Rules survive reboots. Once blocked, always blocked—until you say otherwise. Your rules stay protected from tampering.
Full Visibility
See every rule, enable or disable at will, remove what you don't need. You're always in the driver's seat.
DFC vs Behavioral Airlock
