“One of our biggest challenges was visibility into what was being installed on our endpoints. Even though we had policies prohibiting unauthorized software, users would still install it. With ThreatLocker, we can now detect and block unauthorized applications, giving us the control we were missing.”

-Agnel D'Silva, Chief Technology Officer, City of Danville

“ThreatLocker gave us the granular control we were looking for and provided real peace of mind. It helped our director and me sleep better at night because we knew there was another layer of protection helping watch over our environment and keep our best interests in mind.”

-Jason Parker, Cyber Manager, Bastrop County

“Moving from a heuristics-based system to one where we can define exactly what can run, how it runs, and what it interacts with has been transformational.”

-Jonathan Lazarus, Security Team Lead, City of Hartford

“Even in a complex IT environment, ThreatLocker provides robust protection for every user and device, which is critical for our district. It solved a problem we had struggled with for over a decade and created a secure, flexible environment that supports the needs of our school district.”

-Charisse Snipes, Chief Innovation Officer, City of Hartford

How one breach led the City of Champaign to strengthen its defenses with Zero Trust controls from ThreatLocker

After a breach exposed gaps in its layered security stack, the City of Champaign realized that its existing tools—including two MDR solutions—could not reliably stop an attacker who made it past the first line of defense. The incident prompted the city to rethink how it protected the essential systems supporting police, fire, public works, finance, HR, legal, and administrative operations.

Challenge before implementation
How ThreatLocker solved it
Existing security layers could not reliably stop threats that bypassed the first line of defense
Zero Trust enforcement provided a control point that blocks unauthorized software from executing
Limited visibility into software used across departments
Learning Mode created a clearer software inventory and built an allowlist around normal departmental activity
Concern that tighter controls could disrupt critical city services
Policies were introduced from an observed baseline, allowing the city to strengthen protection without interrupting day-to-day operations
Difficulty distinguishing security threats from legitimate application or update activity
Unified Audit showed what was allowed, what was blocked, and why, enabling faster, more confident troubleshooting
A wide digital environment with unique and unpredictable departmental workflows
Centralized, granular policies gave IT greater control across public safety, public works, finance, HR, legal, and administrative systems
Essential services needed protection outside normal IT working hours
Automated deny-by-default enforcement continued protecting systems when police, fire, and other city operations were most active
New technologies and citizen services risked expanding the attack surface
Greater visibility and execution control allowed the city to introduce new services with more confidence and less operational burden

ThreatLocker solved alert fatigue for us. What I noticed was that the product, the interface, and the amount of data it surfaces allowed some of my more junior team members to become effective responders within our environment. It became a force multiplier for my team.

- Dan Bourdeau, Director of Technology & Cybersecurity, Michigan Municipal Risk Management Authority

ThreatLocker provides that extra key to block anomalies that nothing else can do. It gives me a great deal of comfort as an IT director.

- Mark Toalson, IT Director, City of Champaign

ThreatLocker gave us the granular control we were looking for and provided real peace of mind.

- Jason Parker, Cyber Manager, Bastrop County

ThreatLocker significantly reduced alert fatigue for our team. Before ThreatLocker, we spent countless hours reviewing EDR alerts and investigating potential threats. It wasn't efficient and consumed a lot of our time. With [the] ThreatLocker['s] prevention-first approach, threats are blocked before they can execute, giving us greater peace of mind and allowing our team to focus on more strategic work.

- Agnel D'Silva, Chief Technology Officer, City of Danville

Government agencies are being asked to do more with less amid expanding attack surfaces.

Every new application, connected system, and third-party access point creates another opportunity for attackers.

Without complete visibility and control over what can run in your environment, ransomware and other unauthorized software can execute before traditional tools recognize the malicious behavior. Meanwhile, your team is left investigating alerts and responding to incidents instead of supporting essential public services.

You can avoid these scenarios with proactive Zero Trust controls from ThreatLocker.
