    The policies that you make is where it's key. The "less you let people do, the better it will be" so to speak. So if you really clamp down on a policy and don't let people do specific things, then it'll be better for you. It also helps to protect the "not so tech savvy" people as well. Basically the same thing as above, if you have users that need more flexibility, on occasion the policies might come into play and interfere if you're not careful.

    Threatlocker does exactly as it advertises. I would recommend it to anyone seeking a comprehensive solution for managing software approvals. It is also very easy to use with an online support team, or Cyberheros, as they call it, that is very quick and responsive. The preset programs are also a nice touch, making deployment easy.

    Pros
    BlackBerry
    • Fast and Unobtrusive, users hardly notice that Cylance is running on their computer, except when it detects something malicious
    • User interface is simple for end users, and the management interface is streamlined and easy to get started with. The management interface has a quick tutorial that comes up upon first login that explains all the different aspects of how to configure CylanceProtect.
    • Customer support is fantastic - in that if you get stuck or need help understanding a feature/setting, they are quick to respond and help to ensure that your configuration is set as optimal as possible for your scenarios.

    Cons
    BlackBerry
    • It would be great if there was a way for an administrator to make a file as safe from the end user device when a false positive has occurred (which is rare). At present and administrator has to log into the web console, create an exception and then wait 60-120 seconds for this to be effective on the end user device, still great, but this can be frustrating for users that are urgently trying to use the file.
    • Executive reporting could be better. Just a single page dashboard report that could be included in other monthly reporting.

    • When running the Unified Audit, I like to use certain filters. I wish there as a way to save those filters, so I don't have to select them every time I do a Unified Audit.

    ThreaLocker has done its job and has prevented malware from executing. It has stopped an encryption process once already. It has kept a user from going to a bad website. He tried twice and was wondering why he was getting an error message from ThreatLocker and ESET both.

    Technician and Analyst alike will love this tool as long as they learn to use it. They have fantastic study material that breaks everything down on it where to find settings and how to best manage the tool. End users are the only complaints we get only because they sometimes don't understand that installing a PDF convertor that is labeled as Free on the internet isn't always in their best interest.

    I have only used CylancePROTECT support one time and they were very fast and responsive with the answers that solved my issue. That is the only reason I gave them a 7 as I have only had one interaction with them.

    You can email, call or do online chat with tech support. I love their online chat. They are quick and friendly. Also, if you need to show them something, you can give the chat technician permission from your Chat box to allow the tech access to your computer. They also can pull out your admin console on their side. They can look at your "Unified Audit" log and see the same thing that you can. They have a good KnowledgeBase that you can look for answers. They have what is called "ThreatLocker University" where you can go through tutorials and take tests.

    Cylance, I believe is the only one that uses the predict and prevent execution of advanced threats and malware at the endpoint. Cylance is by far a superior product.

    Prior to buying ThreatLocker, we evaluated Tanium's whitelisting module. We felt that ThreatLocker's method of baselining existing applications and comparing them to known IoC's made for an easier implementation. To be fair, this was solely based on demonstrations by each vendor and not by actual PoC's. The implementation for ThreatLocker went smoothly and we have very few issues with the product that require support intervention. When support is needed, it is readily available via chat.

    • We have the piece of mind that our endpoints are protected.
    • We have more time to work on other projects as we don't have to worry about computers being on to have scheduled scans.
    • Our computers CPU and RAM aren't going to be taken up with big process like typical anti-virus programs do.
