Compare Qualys CSAM vs. ThreatLocker

The attack surface is rapidly increasing, offering cybercriminals a plethora of new targets to exploit. Alarmingly, over 30% of both on-premises and cloud-based assets and services remain untracked, resulting in a significant visibility deficit in cybersecurity. This gap presents a major risk for organizations! CyberSecurity Asset Management (CSAM) is designed as a cloud service that empowers users to continuously identify, categorize, and rectify vulnerabilities, thereby enhancing their cybersecurity defenses against potential threats. It equips organizations with the actionable intelligence that attackers typically leverage, allowing for a proactive stance. CSAM ensures comprehensive visibility by uncovering all known and previously unidentified internet-facing assets, thus enabling full tracking of associated risks. The latest iteration, Qualys CSAM 2.0, introduces external attack surface management, effectively bolstering an organization’s cybersecurity strategies through a multi-layered defense approach. Additionally, it enables ongoing discovery and classification of unknown assets, utilizing a Red Team-inspired asset and vulnerability management system that guarantees complete 360-degree oversight of security. With this robust framework in place, organizations can significantly fortify their defenses before adversaries can exploit these vulnerabilities.

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.
