Comprehensive Protection with L3 Networks and ThreatLocker: A Managed Approach
In today’s cybersecurity landscape, implementing a Microsoft Windows based Zero Trust strategy is no longer optional—it’s essential. ThreatLocker provides an extensive suite of tools designed to enforce a Zero Trust approach, but the true value of these tools is unlocked when paired with expert management. L3 Networks offers that expertise, ensuring that every component of the ThreatLocker suite is optimally configured, continuously monitored, and precisely aligned with your organization’s security needs.
L3 Networks Managed Zero Trust Protection with ThreatLocker Detect
ThreatLocker Detect adds a critical layer to your security stack by continuously monitoring your environment for vulnerabilities and anomalies. It allows for the creation of custom rules and automated responses, such as isolating compromised machines. However, effective threat detection requires more than just advanced technology. L3 Networks’ Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service complements ThreatLocker Detect by providing 24/7 expert monitoring and real-time analysis. Our engineers delve into the telemetry data, ensuring that alerts are accurately interpreted and acted upon, whether that means mitigating an immediate threat or refining existing policies to prevent future incidents.
Key benefits include:
- 24/7 expert monitoring to catch issues as soon as they arise.
- Proactive threat management through real-time analysis and response.
- Policy refinement to continuously improve security postures.
This partnership between advanced tools and expert oversight ensures that your environment is not just secure, but proactively protected.
Elevation Control: Secure Privilege Management
Managing user privileges is a balancing act between security and productivity. ThreatLocker’s Elevation Control enables temporary, application-specific elevation, allowing users to install necessary software without compromising security. However, the effectiveness of this feature depends on meticulous oversight. L3 Networks integrates Elevation Control into your overall security strategy, providing real-time review and approval of elevation requests. This service ensures that every request is aligned with your organization’s security policies, reducing risks associated with unauthorized installations. Whether your team is working remotely or across multiple time zones, L3 Networks’ just-in-time support ensures that security and productivity remain in perfect harmony.
- Real-time approval: Our team reviews elevation requests to maintain security integrity.
- Seamless integration: Elevation Control is woven into your broader security strategy for maximum effectiveness.
L3 Networks’ approach ensures that privilege management remains both secure and responsive to your organization’s needs.
Network Control: Enforcing Secure Connections
Securing network connections is crucial in protecting your organization from cyber threats. ThreatLocker’s Network Control manages access to critical services and blocks unauthorized devices, providing essential security for services like RDP, SQL, and FTP. However, these controls must be continuously fine-tuned to adapt to emerging threats and evolving network conditions. L3 Networks takes this further by providing ongoing management and optimization of your Network Control policies. Our experts work closely with your team to develop, implement, and adjust policies that ensure your network remains resilient. This proactive management approach means that Network Control is not just a set-and-forget solution but an evolving component of your overall security strategy, guided by experienced hands.
L3 Networks’ ongoing involvement ensures:
- Continuous policy optimization to stay ahead of new threats.
- Strategic adjustments that keep your network resilient against evolving challenges.
With L3 Networks managing your Network Control, your network security is always one step ahead.
Storage Control: Safeguarding Your Data
Data security is at the core of any Zero Trust strategy, and ThreatLocker’s Storage Control offers robust tools for managing how data is accessed across your network. With granular control over USB drives, network shares, and local folders, it’s designed to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access. Yet, to ensure that these controls provide maximum protection, they must be tailored to your specific environment and continuously monitored. L3 Networks excels at this, providing expert configuration and ongoing management of your Storage Control policies. We work with your organization to define critical data assets, establish access controls, and ensure compliance with industry standards. By combining ThreatLocker’s capabilities with L3 Networks’ strategic oversight, your data remains secure, no matter where it resides.
- Granular control over data access ensures only authorized users can reach sensitive information.
- Expert configuration means your data security is always aligned with best practices and compliance requirements.
With L3 Networks at the helm, your data is not just controlled—it’s safeguarded with the highest level of precision.
Configuration Manager: Streamlining Security Policies
Managing security configurations across your Windows environment can be complex, especially when relying on traditional tools like Group Policy Objects (GPOs). ThreatLocker’s Configuration Manager simplifies this process, allowing for the centralized management of critical policies such as disabling risky Office macros or enforcing detailed security logging. However, the true strength of Configuration Manager lies in its integration into a broader security strategy. L3 Networks not only deploys these policies but also continuously monitors and adjusts them to ensure they remain effective. Our team’s proactive management of Configuration Manager means your organization is always protected against new threats, ensuring compliance and minimizing risks.
By working with L3 Networks, your Configuration Manager will:
- Deploy critical security policies with ease across your network.
- Continuously adjust configurations to adapt to new vulnerabilities and emerging threats.
Our proactive approach ensures that your environment remains secure, compliant, and resilient.
Application Control: Locking Down Threats Before They Start
ThreatLocker’s Application Control is a cornerstone of Zero Trust, providing the granular control needed to prevent unauthorized applications from running on your network. By blocking unapproved software before it can execute, Application Control stops threats at their source. However, the effectiveness of this tool depends on expert management. L3 Networks provides that expertise, taking responsibility for configuring, monitoring, and adjusting your application policies. Our team ensures that only approved applications are allowed to run, and we continuously refine these policies to adapt to your changing needs and the evolving threat landscape.
With L3 Networks managing your Application Control:
- Only approved applications will run, reducing risk and ensuring compliance.
- Proactive adjustments keep your policies aligned with both operational needs and security best practices.
Our managed approach ensures that your application security remains robust and adaptable.
The Power of Partnership: ThreatLocker and L3 Networks
While ThreatLocker provides the technology, L3 Networks delivers the expert management that transforms these tools into a comprehensive security solution. By partnering with L3 Networks, you’re not just implementing technology—you’re investing in a strategic ally committed to maintaining and enhancing your security posture. Every ThreatLocker module is configured correctly, monitored continuously, and adjusted proactively to meet your unique needs. In today’s complex threat landscape, this combination of advanced tools and expert management is the key to truly effective security.
