Airlock DigitalvsCheckov

Airlock Digital provides specialized application allowlisting (whitelisting) and execution control software engineered to stop unauthorized software, malware, ransomware, and file-based scripts from executing on Windows, macOS, and Linux endpoints. It transforms traditional allowlisting from a cumbersome administrative burden into a streamlined operational workflow. Using cryptographic file hashing and automated trusted publisher rules, Airlock ensures that only explicitly approved applications, DLLs, and scripts can execute. Aligned with strict government compliance standards such as the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) Essential 8 Maturity Level 3, Airlock empowers security teams to neutralize zero-day payloads before they compromise enterprise networks.

Checkov focuses on infrastructure as code security checks. Checkov is most valuable before infrastructure changes reach production. Finding an overly permissive cloud resource in a pull request is cheaper than discovering it after deployment. Large infrastructure repositories can generate many policy exceptions. Without clear ownership, teams may start suppressing checks rather than improving their templates.
