Release Date: November 25, 2024
Improvements:
- Silo Translate
- Added Dynamic Translation: website content is now translated as it is accessed. This speeds up translation and ensures that all content is translated — even when text is added to a page after it is initially loaded
- Log Encryption
- To make it easier to enroll and use log encryption, Silo now supports the widely-used ECIES AES-256 encryption algorithm
- ECIES AES-256 will be the default and only encryption option available to organizations that do not currently encrypt logs
- Organizations that already encrypt their logs may select the new algorithm in Admin Console > Policies > Advanced > Log Encryption
- Logging
- To improve the readability of URL logs during audits, webpage title has been added as a field to URL logs
- Silo for Research sessions previously logged as “toolbox-ruby” in the session_type column are now tracked as “Toolbox Chromium” in URL logs for consistency and to improve clarity
- Admin Console
- A new API command has been added to allow users to be promoted to admins programmatically
- Traffic management in Silo has been improved to prevent site access issues before they occur
- Silo for Research fingerprints have been refined to improve the verisimilitude of the spoofed browser and platform to visited websites
- Pendo Integration With Silo
- Enables future Pendo.io integration into Silo to provide in-browser user guides and capture analytics on user interactions with Silo service components. In addition to enhancing the user experience with in-app guides directly within the Silo browser, this integration enables analytics to ensure the service is performing reliably, assist with the prioritization of component maintenance, and guide future improvements.
- User information collected includes pseudonymized data related to behavioral usage patterns, which cannot be directly tied to an individual user.
- Data processing is conducted within the United States
- Pendo integration is essential for improving user experience within the Silo browser by providing actionable insights into user interactions and providing targeted in-browser guides to support efficient navigation and usability
