What is Threat Locker

Threat Locker Introduction

ThreatLocker is a cybersecurity solution that focuses on application control, endpoint security, and zero trust protection. It is designed to help organizations protect their systems by controlling which applications, scripts, and executables can run on their endpoints and servers.

Key Features:

Application Whitelisting:

  • Only pre-approved applications and services are allowed to run, preventing unknown or unauthorized software from executing.

Ringfencing™ Technology:

  • Restricts what approved applications can do and limits their interactions with other processes, reducing the risk of lateral movement in case of a breach.

Storage Control:

  • Prevents unauthorized access to external storage devices such as USB drives and limits the risk of data exfiltration.

Elevation Control:

  • Provides just-in-time, controlled elevation of admin privileges to reduce the attack surface.

Zero Trust Model:

  • Default deny approach where only explicitly approved actions and applications are permitted, minimizing vulnerabilities.

Audit and Logging:

  • Offers detailed logging of application usage and system changes, making it easier for IT teams to monitor potential threats.

Benefits:

  • Protects against ransomware, malware, and insider threats.
  • Ensures compliance with industry regulations like HIPAA, PCI, and others.
  • Reduces the attack surface by minimizing unnecessary application access.

Use Cases:

  • Organizations seeking to prevent unauthorized application execution.
  • Businesses handling sensitive data that require strict control over endpoint activities.
  • IT teams looking to enforce zero trust security policies without impacting productivity.
