Frequently Asked Questions
What is allowlisting?
Allowlisting, also known as a 'whitelist', is a security practice where only explicitly approved applications are permitted to run on a system. Any application not on the approved list is blocked.
How does ThreatLocker prevent new threats?
ThreatLocker's default deny approach means that even if a new, unknown malware variant is introduced, it will be blocked because it is not on the pre-approved allowlist.
Can this be used with existing antivirus software?
Yes, ThreatLocker Allowlisting complements traditional antivirus solutions by providing a proactive layer of defense that prevents malicious code from executing in the first place.
