Solid security product, a new mindset for the users Edited: Nov 27 2023
Summary: Using learning mode allows to train the system well in advance of making it live, eliminating most of the headaches surrounding implementing new security architecture. The application is stable and well thought out. When we get stuck on the administrative side, the support team is stellar and extremely fast at responding (sometimes in just a couple minutes) and assisting with the issue.
Positive: Does an extremely good job of preventing problematic applications from either taking over or accessing information they shouldn't. Ringfencing prevents applications that have no need for lateral movement from doing so. Adopting a zero-trust methodology fixes a major security flaw in that it prevents problems before they start, for the minor inconvenience of getting unknown things approved first. Automated privilege escalation is one of the best features; if a user is installing an app that requires admin privileges, you can approve automatic escalation for a period of time for that installer and no credentials are needed to be passed to the user.
Negative: Not really a con, totally, but teaching users the advantages of a zero-trust system requires a little bit of creativity. It is fundamentally different than "let me do whatever and try to detect it after the fact", so users often see it as a hindrance to their normal operations when they try to do something that wasn't learned ahead of time.

Positive: The ease of use on implementation, and troubleshooting.
Have more control over the environment without requiring a Team dedicated to reviewing logs and taking action.Negative: Reviewing the logs can be a mess and take some time up to 5 minutes to show from the PC to the cloud, but the PC is instant.

Positive: Everything - Seriously.
The ability to control what runs and attempts to execute is unmatched. The ease of use of this platform sets it apart.Negative: Not clearing the cache from a user request to run a program.

Summary: ThreatLocker is a necessity in the world of malware and malicious actors in the technology sphere we all live and work in. At the very least do a demo with them to see if it will work for you, but I can promise you probably need it whether you know it yet or not.
Positive: ThreatLocker lives in an all-in-one portal to provide a zero trust software service. This is convenient and frankly necessary in order to manage multiple companies or sites. ThreatLocker allows IT admins to intuit which software is "safe" (trusted) and which has to be approved. This is easy to learn for IT staff and can be delegated to almost anyone.
Negative: ThreatLocker by its nature is a nuisance, I mean this in the most positive way possible, but it can stop things dead for a company or end user/decision maker if you do not do your homework and follow Learning Mode best practices. You really need to have your IT staff trained and ready to go LONG before go live.

Summary: ThreatLocker works day in and day out to keep their known good programs and interactions up to date, so you don't have to start from scratch on unblocking things. You also have the ability to put your environments in learning mode so the software sees what SHOULD be running normally. So your lift on the daily is minimal.
It really does let us sleep better at night knowing our clients are protected from themselves and bad actors.Positive: It stops everything you don't allow from running.
User wants to install shadow program - blocked.
User wants to install malware - blocked.
User clicked on a malicious link - blocked.
Literally anything that isn't allowed - or shouldn't be interacting with another program will be blocked from running unless you allow it.Negative: You have to actively learn the product and be involved in its daily use.

Very easy to manage application allow listing Date: Mar 10 2023
Summary: Overall, I highly recommend ThreatLocker for any organization looking to enhance their cybersecurity.
Positive: We have been using ThreatLocker since 2021.
The application control feature helps us to improve our Essential 8 application control measures. and tick the box for compliance.
The web portal makes managing allow lists very easy, and learning and install mode means you don't have to collect file hashes manually.Negative: At peek times, the website might be a bit sluggish, but it's understandable considering the amount of data available to you via the "unified audit" option. This also has improved a lot since ThreatLocker is constantly working on improving the performance.
