Do you trust that binary from GitHub? Or want to keep the telemetry generated by your latest in-house tools from leaking to threat intel?

  • Easily and quickly isolate VMs from the internet
  • Snapshots are taken before isolation and reverted before internet is turned back on
  • Allow specific domains or IPs while isolated to test live C2 channels or techniques that require internet
