ThreatLocker
I have tested two of software besides ThreatLocker. ThreatLocker by far, was the easiest of the 3 to work with and setup. One of the companies' software was too complicated to run and setup. The other one lacked a lot of the features that ThreatLocker had. ThreatLocker came with many prebuilt template for common software and utilities, like Office365, putty, Firefox, Google, etc. It came with a bunch of prebuilt blocking/ringfencing rules for utilities like powershell, hyper-v psexec, and many others. This saves setup time. Unfortunately, ThreatLocker will let you download something from the MS Store, sometime it will let you execute and sometimes it won't. I would like to see this to be able to block the download from MS Store until ThreatLocker approves the download.

It provides great web security and will protect your devices against viruses and malware when paired with other security software and hardware. For instance, we have multiple layers of security set up so if McAfee misses something then one of our other barriers will catch the infection or intrusion before it reaches the network. I would not suggest using this product as a standalone agent because I do not think it will be as effective when working by itself. The dashboard also makes it convenient to manage devices, policies, and settings from wherever you are so it's an ideal solution for any IT department to use. I would just suggest using something else as a backup so your network isn't left vulnerable.

  • The amount of false detections especially the negative ones needed to be reduced.
  • It requires more optimization. It tends to make the PCs slower.
  • It almost doesn't have the ability to heal. This is very important as we need our sensitive data to be recoverable.
  • It doesn't have any free scanning functionality. Our users using personal machines cannot scan in case of an incident. This could be added like Malwarebytes.

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.

Usability
ThreatLocker
ThreatLocker ease of use allows me to get the answers I need to any threats or denied action that ThreatLocker took. The "Unified Audit" is a great tool to show what is happening/executing on a user's computer or on a server. Unified Audit will allow to look at what steps a programs takes when it executes. It will show you if it calls on Powershell or what DLL's it is executing and many other things.

Support Rating
ThreatLocker
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.

The support of product was very good when we initially implemented the solution. We were getting fats replies and could see the customer approach. After a while the level of support was not following the SLA's and the replies were getting very confusing and late.

ThreatLocker
I honestly have not seen many other programs like Threatlocker so I do not have any to compare to. Auto-Elevate may be the closest, however I did not evaluate them as part of my decision. Threatlocker does do a great job at onboarding which made deploying, setting up, and troubleshooting the program a breeze

Unlike Trellix Endpoint Security Symantec Endpoint provides less information about events on the user side. Trellix give an opportunity to see information about virus detection on a user machine as quick as it possible, so we were able to catch the signs of virus propagation early and prevent the spread of damage

Return on Investment
ThreatLocker
  • Too early on to tell, however, if ThreatLocker ends up blocking just one ransomware attack for any of our clients, I'd argue that it payed for itself.

  • From an auditing standpoint, we can show that our workstations/servers are protected.
  • Even though it cant identify more advanced/targeted malware, it is still good to identify the more obvious malware which occurs daily in my enterprise.
  • Since it can be easily deployed, the products can easily get deployed on all systems in the environment for optimal anti-malware protection.
