Description

Unlock the full potential of AirGap

The final puzzle piece for the Vault

AirGap Vault’s source code ensures that the seed phrase is stored safely on the secure enclave and that it doesn’t use any network. But it can not ensure what the phone’s environment looks like and if it still uses any network. This is where AirGap Knox comes in. It takes security to the next level by disabling all forms of network on an OS level, thereby achieving true offline security.

Truly Offline, Truly Cold

Once installed, the AirGap Knox takes control of the system and initiates the blocking of all connections on a deep system level — whether its wifi, cellular, NFC or Bluetooth. The AirGap Knox acts as a device manager and guards the usability by restricting only the launch of the AirGap Vault and limiting other functionalities. After the setup, your seed phrase can then be generated in total privacy and top security.

Easy enrolment and usability

To setup AirGap Knox simply scan the special QR code with a wiped Android device and Knox gets set up like magic. The code initiates the installment of the AirGap Knox bundle and defines it as the device manager, allowing it to handle all setup factors and enabling the lockdown mode.

How to install AirGap Knox?

AirGap Knox is easy to set up through a QR code from our website. Users simply need to wipe an Android Recommended device, then boot it up, enter the enterprise setup and scan the provided QR Code. This code initiates the instalment of the AirGap Knox bundle – It sets the Knox application as the device manager and starts to handle all setup factors, including downloading the latest version of AirGap Vault and enabling the lockdown/kiosk mode, which turns off all the connection and limits usage of the device to only the AirGap Knox app.

How do I update the AirGap Knox

Updates can be executed by using the APK and a transfer device such as a USB-stick or an SD Card. Follow the instructions here: https://support.airgap.it/guides/airgap-vault-offline-update-android/

AirGap Knox comes with an updatability licence. Allowing you to update the AirGap Vault app during a set time period. You can continue to use AirGap Knox / AirGap Vault without any limitations after the licence has expired. If you wish to update the AirGap Vault to the newest version you will be asked to purchase a new QR-Code.
How does AirGap Knox leverage the Android Enterprise setup?

Android Enterprise was first launched in 2014 to enable setting rules and limitations on devices. These limitations are often used in an enterprise environment to make sure the devices are only used for specific tasks. Hence the name Android Enterprise. At AirGap we leverage this feature in two ways:

1. Easy enrolment
Android Enterprise devices offer a quick and easy way to enrol your devices right when they are unboxed or after a factory reset, in the form of six to eight rapid taps and scanning of a QR Code.

2. Push a defined rule set
The before mentioned method of enrollment, downloads the AirGap Knox program, sets the it as Device Manager (EMM managed) and performs the AirGap Knox rule set:
– Download of the newest version of the AirGap Vault
– Disabling all sorts of connectivity on a system level (wifi, cellular, NFC, Bluetooth)
– Enrolment of the lockdown mode / or Kiosk Mode. Which further restricts the usability of the phone so only the AirGap Knox application as the managing app can be launched. Only through the AirGp Knox application the user can then open the AirGap Vault application.
Is the AirGap Knox Code open source?

The AirGap Vault which is the heart of the whole solution is completely open source:
https://github.com/airgap-it/airgap-vault/releases
The Knox device manger, which is responsible for the device restrictions and the installation is currently not open source. However, this might change in the future. 
Who is the device manager?

In a conventional Android Enterprise setup the Device Manager is an IT admin or the cooperation itself. In AirGap Knox’s case it is the program itself that becomes the Device Manager.
There are no privacy concerns since AirGap Knox is managing itself and is cut off by design from the internet from the very beginning.
Once AirGap Knox has been installed can I turn it back into a normal phone?

Yes, you can turn it back into a normal phone. There is a dedicated reset function included.
