Not all application allowlisting is created equal.
Some tools rely on visibility modes, reputation scores, and complex rule-building that still leave the door open to weaponized trusted apps.
ThreatLocker® Application Control is different.
If you're tired of chasing alerts, writing custom rules, or relying on reputation-based tools that only act after something’s gone wrong, it’s time for a better way.
Why leading IT teams choose
ThreatLocker allowlisting
- Deny-by-default policy enforcement: Approve only known, approved applications to run. Everything else is blocked by default.
- Custom policy control without the overhead: With a library of 10,000+ pre-built, auto-maintained application definitions, you can swiftly streamline policy rollout across your environment.
- Automated Learning Mode: Quickly baseline normal operations without user disruption. Skip days of tedious work and possible oversight.
- World-class support: No bots, just dedicated human beings responding within seconds, 24/7/365.
- No reliance on reputation scores: You stay in control. No waiting for a third party to flag weaponized software.
- Ringfencing™: Prevent trusted apps from being exploited by controlling how they interact with files, registry keys, networks, and other applications—including PowerShell and Command Prompt. Only ThreatLocker delivers this level of granular control.
- Built-in Elevation Control (PAM): Drastically reduce the risks of admin privileges exploitation. Grant admin privileges on the application level only when, where, and how you define them.
Built on Zero Trust: Deny by default, permit by exception.

HEAR FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
Having software that prevents any unauthorized application from running seems like the best solution one could ask for.

Prior to ThreatLocker, we didn’t have a solution in place to help with application whitelisting. Implementing it into our environment was truly game-changing... It came in, took control, and significantly reduced our threat landscape.

When dealing with ransomware, we want to ensure we’re truly protecting the applications we use every day, and I think ThreatLocker enables us to do that very well.
