Release Date: November 6, 2025


Major Features


    New: Silo Apps

  • Run full desktop applications: Telegram, Maltego, LibreOffice, Text Editor (gedit), and Obsidian are available now — more apps coming soon!

  • Security & isolation: just like the browser, Silo Apps are run in a secure, isolated cloud environment

  • Managed attribution beyond the browser: Silo Apps can be configured with any of the egresses available in the global Silo Managed Attribution Network

  • Simple and easy to use: Unlike VM-based solutions, Silo Apps look and feel more like regular desktop apps

  • Keep apps and data organized with Workspaces: available apps and application data are stored separately for each user and each Workspace (Toolbox), assisting with operational security and preventing cross-contamination between projects

  • Secure Storage Integration: Silo Drive’s new Workspace Storage feature allows users to conveniently share files between apps within the same Workspace

  • Powerful policy options: the Admin Console now includes the ability to control which applications are available to users


         Note: Silo Apps is not included in all license packages. For more information, contact your 

            Account Manager or Authentic8 Support (support@authentic8.com).

   

    New: Silo for Research Start Page

  • Built with Apps in mind: easily add apps to your Workspaces and launch them from the new sidebar (requires Silo Apps)

  • Convenient access to Silo Tools: access essential platform utilities like Silo Drive without needing to search through web extension icons on your browser’s toolbar

  • Features at your fingertips: quickly restore the tabs of your last browser session, manage your browsing history and other data, or install extensions
