Denied by default. Ringfencing and storage control keep even trusted tools in their lane—so PowerShell doesn't become a weapon. And yes—it works at scale. Granular policies. Fast rollout. Built for modern infrastructure. You don't need more alerts. You need fewer chances for malware to make a move. ThreatLocker helps you flip the model—from detect-and-respond… to deny-and-verify.
