Frequently Asked Questions
What is application whitelisting?
Application whitelisting is a security strategy where only pre-approved applications are allowed to run on a system. Any application not on the approved list is blocked. This is the core principle behind ThreatLocker CyberHero Approvals.
How does this protect against ransomware?
Ransomware typically executes as an unauthorized application. By enforcing application whitelisting, CyberHero Approvals prevents the ransomware executable from running in the first place, thus stopping the encryption process before it begins.
Is this difficult to set up for a small business?
ThreatLocker CyberHero Approvals is designed for ease of use and rapid deployment. Its cloud-native architecture minimizes setup time and complexity, making advanced security accessible for SMBs.
