How ThreatLocker Prevents Cyber Threats

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates ThreatLocker from other similar products?

Unlike other EDR and antivirus software, Threatlocker does not depend on signature-based and behavioral detection. Its “default deny” approach does not allow the execution of unauthorized software, thus preventing attacks. ThreatLocker’s Ring-fencing limits the functioning of the applications even if they are supposed to run. Where others provide basic USM blocking, ThreaLocker provides control over storage access.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

ThreatLocker offers dynamic network control by restricting the link of applications to the network, thus adding an extra layer of protection. In cybersecurity, the response time is very important. I appreciate this software for giving fast and knowledge-based support to aware us from minor and major losses. Its Ringfencing feature keeps the applications restricted from any suspicious behavior. Moreover, I would say it provides and secure services and we feel we are working in safe environment.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Threatlocker does not protect SaaS applications like other platforms. ThreatLocker is sometimes complex, so detailed guidelines should be provided for proper understanding of its functioning. It lacks flexibility in customization and is sometimes rigid. Due to a strict approach, there are chances that updates can be marked as dislikes.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

First, you have to focus on how it fits according to work and how much time it consumes in the adjustment and maintenance of the rules. If you are considering cloud services, you have to find out whether Threatlock provides security features in that regard or not.
