Fantastic zero-trust product

Likeliness to Recommend

10 / 10

What differentiates ThreatLocker from other similar products?

Threatlocker's ability to allowlist and ringfence. In addition, their cyber hero support is second to none - always timely, professional, and knowledgeable.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The ringfencing and allowlisting.

What do you dislike most about this product?

When configuring the duration of the learning mode, if you want to deviate from the default, it can be time consuming.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For each department group, I would advise that all software is run during the learning mode to create policies for each software that it observes. Failure to do this will lead to inefficiencies and frustrated employees when encountering alerts when attempting to open a file or software.

Checking Out ThreatLocker -- A Practical Review

Likeliness to Recommend

8 / 10

What differentiates ThreatLocker from other similar products?

ThreatLocker is different from regular antivirus because it doesn't just look for known bad stuff like viruses. Instead, it watches how programs behave on your computer. If something acts suspicious or tries to do something harmful, ThreatLocker stops it.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

ThreatLocker helps you control the information that goes in and out of your computer, making it harder for your data to accidentally get out or be stolen.

What do you dislike most about this product?

ThreatLocker's rules too strict, it might accidentally block people from using important programs they need for their work.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Make sure to regularly copy and save important data. If something goes wrong with ThreatLocker or any other security tool, having these backups can help you avoid losing your important information.
