Your AI Cyber Defense Agent


A smarter way to stay secure, built for small teams who need big protection

At Lockwell, we’ve always believed cybersecurity should be powerful, affordable, and — most of all — accessible. Because the truth is, most security tools weren’t built with small businesses or nonprofits in mind. They were built for companies with full-time IT staff, complicated infrastructure, and the budget to support both.

But that’s not reality for most teams.

That’s why we’re so excited to introduce Elle — your new AI Cyber Defense Agent, built directly into the Lockwell platform. Elle doesn’t just show you security issues. She resolves them for you. In real-time. Across your devices, inboxes, cloud storage, and more.

She’s not a chatbot. She’s not another alert you have to deal with.
Elle is an active, intelligent agent working quietly in the background to protect your people, your data, and your organization — without adding more to your to-do list.

What Can Elle Do?

Elle is designed to act like a member of your team — not just a tool you install and forget. She works across multiple parts of the Lockwell platform to help identify threats, recommend solutions, and take secure action on your behalf.

Here’s how she helps you stay protected:

1. Email Firewall

Elle scans your team’s inboxes for suspicious messages, phishing attempts, and potential malware — and when something risky pops up, she doesn’t wait for you to dig through your spam folder.

She can:

  • Automatically move malicious emails to trash or spam

  • Mark false positives as safe

  • Surface and resolve issues directly from your dashboard

  • Help educate your team on what to look out for next time

2. Workspace Security

In Google Drive, it’s shockingly easy to overshare files without realizing it. One public link. One outdated permission. And suddenly, sensitive data is exposed.

Elle helps prevent that by:

  • Scanning your Google Workspace for insecure file sharing

  • Identifying public or overly broad access settings

  • Offering one-click fixes to lock files down securely

She’ll even help you prioritize the highest-risk files first, so nothing slips through the cracks.

3. Device Security

If a device on your team is acting strange or seems at risk, Elle can jump in — no IT support required.

From the Lockwell dashboard, Elle can:

  • Start deep malware scans

  • Trigger secure device backups

  • Flag compromised systems for further review

She knows when something looks wrong, and she acts fast to keep it contained.

4. Admin Support

Elle isn’t just for end users — she’s a game-changer for admins, too.

She can:

  • Invite, suspend, or deactivate user accounts

  • Disable or re-enable devices

  • Help you manage access across your whole team with a few clicks

And That’s Just the Beginning

Elle’s capabilities go well beyond what we’ve covered here — and she’s evolving fast. Because she’s fully integrated across the Lockwell platform, Elle has insight into your entire environment and can step in to take action wherever she’s needed most.

Whether it’s identifying trends, helping you respond to emerging threats, or supporting new tools as they’re released, Elle is designed to grow with your organization. This is just the start — and we’re only scratching the surface of what she’ll be able to do.

Built for People, Not Just for Platforms

At Lockwell, we talk to small business owners, nonprofit directors, and busy admin teams every week. We hear the same thing again and again: “We know cybersecurity is important… we just don’t have the time, the people, or the expertise to manage it all.”

Elle was built for that exact situation.

She’s not replacing your team — she’s giving them superpowers. With Elle, the heavy lifting of cybersecurity happens quietly in the background, so your team can focus on what they do best.

And because she’s fully integrated with Lockwell, Elle works seamlessly with all the protections already in place — from your password vault to your VPN to your forensic audit logs.

Why This Matters

Cyberattacks don’t wait. And they don’t care if your team is small, short-staffed, or under-resourced. In fact, that’s exactly why small organizations are targeted: fewer defenses, slower response times, and a higher chance of success.

Elle helps level the playing field.

She gives you:

  • Faster response times

  • Fewer manual tasks

  • Smarter decisions

  • And a whole lot more peace of mind

And the best part? You don’t have to log into five tools, hire a security consultant, or take a crash course in IT to benefit from what Elle does.

You just use Lockwell — and she’s already working for you.

What’s Next

Elle is live now inside the Lockwell platform. If you’re already a customer, you may have already seen her in action — offering suggestions, surfacing issues, or resolving problems automatically in the background.

Over the coming months, we’ll be expanding her capabilities even further, giving her more ways to support your team, your tools, and your mission.

If you’re not using Lockwell yet and want to see what Elle can do, let’s talk. We’d love to give you a quick demo and show you how she’s changing the game for small organizations across every sector.

One Last Thing

Elle’s not here to add more noise. She’s here to cut through it.
She’s here to protect your team, lighten your load, and help you respond to threats without ever feeling overwhelmed.
