What is Network Control?

ThreatLocker® Network Control is a centrally managed firewall for endpoints and servers that provides complete control over network traffic to protect devices.
It uses configurable policies based on IP addresses, keywords, agent authentication, or dynamic ACL lists, enabling granular control over network access.

Why Network Control?

There is no longer a local network — nor a traditional corporate firewall.
Users work not only in the office but also remotely, so the network we use has effectively become the internet, making devices and data vulnerable to cyber threats.
This blurring of the business perimeter makes network access control essential for protecting your devices and, consequently, your data.

ThreatLocker® Network Access Control helps safeguard business assets whether employees are in the office or working remotely.
ThreatLocker® Network Control provides a direct connection between client and server, unlike VPNs, which route traffic through a central point.

How Does Network Control Work?

ThreatLocker® network security tools help manage firewall policies and port control for all devices from a single location.Traditional firewalls rely on static ACL lists to control access to network resources, requiring IT intervention to make changes.Employees who frequently travel or change work locations need IT to configure the firewall for each new site.
ThreatLocker® uses dynamic ACL lists to configure the firewall without user intervention.Create custom policies to open ports on demand for authorized devices and users, regardless of where they connect from.
If an authorized device no longer uses an open port, it automatically closes within 5 minutes.Unauthorized devices cannot connect to open ports and will be denied access.

Traditional NAC security solutions focus on broad network access control. ThreatLocker® Network Control focuses on controlling and protecting individual endpoints.This granular control enables organizations to allow or block specific applications or processes, data transmission over the network, or access to particular resources.Network security monitoring tools simplify the enforcement of security policies and protect your data regardless of where your employees work.
