Compare BlackBerry Persona vs. ThreatLocker

BlackBerry® Persona employs machine learning (ML) and predictive artificial intelligence (AI) to adjust security policies in real time, taking into account factors such as user location and device type, thereby safeguarding against both accidental mistakes and well-meaning but misguided actions. Through the use of continuous authentication, it unobtrusively confirms user identity via passive biometrics and usage patterns. Users displaying unusual behavior are automatically barred from accessing applications, ensuring that malicious actors cannot gain entry. The system relaxes security measures when users are in trusted environments but promptly recalibrates them when they enter areas deemed higher-risk. Additionally, it tailors device security to comply with local regulations as employees move from country to country, facilitating smoother access to applications and services without the need for repeated authentication in secure locations. This innovative approach enables a seamless user experience while maintaining robust security protocols.

ThreatLocker is a Zero Trust security platform that stops cyber threats by allowing only approved applications and activity to run. It removes standing admin rights, enforces least privilege, and gives organizations precise control over software behavior. With capabilities like application control, ringfencing, and device and storage restrictions, it prevents ransomware, zero day exploits, and unauthorized actions before they can execute. Purpose built for IT and security teams, ThreatLocker offers centralized management and full visibility across endpoints, users, and applications. It helps shrink the attack surface, restrict lateral movement, and meet compliance requirements with detailed auditing. Quick to deploy and easy to manage, the platform includes a large maintained application library and simplified approval workflows, enabling stronger security with less operational burden while keeping the business running smoothly.
