Product Features

Empowering organizations with secure research

Sophisticated managed attribution engine

  • IP address customization — The ability to select from a global pool of IP addresses, allowing users to appear as if they are operating from virtually any location worldwide. This helps bypass regional content restrictions, avoid geo-targeting, and blend into chosen digital environments.
  • Device and browser emulation — Users can emulate different device types (desktop, tablet, mobile), operating systems, and browser configurations to create a plausible and consistent digital persona.
  • Time zone and language settings — Secure Access allows for customization of system time zones and preferred language settings, matching a user’s digital footprint to their chosen online persona and making detection by adversaries significantly more difficult.
  • Persistent personas — The application supports the creation and management of persistent, reusable online personas, allowing for long-term investigations or research that requires continuity and credibility in digital environments.
