Using with ThreatLocker

ThreatLocker’s software allows organizations to control and restrict which applications can run on their systems, helping to prevent unauthorized or malicious software from executing. By implementing application control and ringfencing policies, ThreatLocker aims to enhance security by reducing the attack surface and preventing unapproved software from compromising a system.

DefensX has already been integrated into the ThreatLocker ecosystem. The DefensX application is included in the list of known applications as DefensX (Built-In). You just need to add DefensX (Built-In) application into a policy for permitted applications.

If you don’t have any existing policies, you can create a new one by navigating to Modules → Application Control in the ThreatLocker menu.

Then, click on the + New Policy button to create a policy:

  • In the Conditions section, please type DefensX in the search box.

  • Select both the DefensX (Built-In) and Firefox Extension - DefensX (Built-In) rules

  • In the Actions section select Permit

  • Click on the Save button and deploy the policies.

Note
 The DefensX Firefox extension operates under a dedicated rule within ThreatLocker. Conversely, when using the Chrome and Edge extensions, selecting additional rules is unnecessary; the DefensX (built-in) rule stands as the sole requirement.
