ORLANDO, Fla – March 11, 2025 – ThreatLocker^®, a global leader in Zero Trust cybersecurity solutions, today announced the results of a commissioned Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study conducted by Forrester Consulting. The 2025 study examines the potential return on investment (ROI) and business impact enterprises may realize by deploying ThreatLocker security platform.

Forrester’s independent research found that organizations leveraging ThreatLocker achieved 184% ROI and a net present value (NPV) of $4.15 million over three years. The study, based on interviews with five decision-makers across four organizations, aggregated insights into a composite multibillion-dollar, globally operated B2B company.

Key findings from the TEI Study:

• 99% reduction in security incidents addressable with ThreatLocker: ThreatLocker default-deny approach ensures only approved applications run, significantly reducing the risk of zero-day attacks and unauthorized software execution. This led to a $4 million risk reduction in potential data breaches.
  ‍
• 50% labor efficiency gains: Security teams cut time spent on routine maintenance, auditing, cleanup, and response, resulting in $1.1 million in security operations efficiency.
  ‍
• $1.2 million in avoided licensing costs: By replacing 10,000 third-party licenses, organizations reduced reliance on traditional endpoint detection and antivirus solutions, leading to substantial cost savings.
  ‍
• Enhanced security posture: With ThreatLocker advanced Ringfencing™ technology, organizations effectively contained potential threats, reported zero security incidents, and streamlined security management.
  ‍
• Increased visibility and control: Organizations leveraged ThreatLocker application visibility features to reduce shadow IT risks, improve compliance, and simplify auditing.

“To us, Forrester’s findings show what we hear from our customers every day—ThreatLocker is a critical cybersecurity solution and a driver of efficiency and cost savings,” said Danny Jenkins, CEO and co-founder of ThreatLocker. “The 184% ROI underscores the financial and operational value of a Zero Trust approach in protecting organizations against evolving cyber threats.”

He added, “Security teams today are facing mounting pressure to do more with less, and ThreatLocker provides a proactive approach that strengthens security and drives measurable cost savings. This study is a testament to the tangible impact we bring to organizations globally.”
