What types of policies can be created in ThreatLocker?

In ThreatLocker, policies can be created specifically for application whitelisting and ringfencing, which are key components of its security framework.

Application whitelisting allows organizations to control what software can run on their systems, reducing the risk of malware and unauthorized applications executing. By establishing a list of permitted applications, organizations ensure that only trusted software can run, thereby enhancing security posture.

Ringfencing further restricts applications by defining what resources (such as network access or file system paths) they can interact with. This means that even if a whitelisted application becomes compromised, its ability to spread or access sensitive data is limited. This layered approach to security helps prevent data breaches and protects the integrity of the organization's systems.

The other options focus too narrowly, either suggesting that only specific types of policies exist or omitting crucial components related to ThreatLocker’s capabilities. ThreatLocker’s flexibility in policy creation and its comprehensive approach to endpoint security is what distinguishes it in the cybersecurity landscape.
