Why Tech Troubleshooters for Application Ring-Fencing?

Attackers increasingly abuse legitimate applications because they are trusted by traditional security tools. Ring-fencing contains each application so that even if it is compromised, the damage it can do is severely limited.

Who this is for

Businesses using application allowlisting or Zero Trust, organisations concerned about supply-chain and living-off-the-land attacks, and any company wanting tighter application control.

Common problems we solve

  • Legitimate apps being exploited by attackers
  • Applications accessing data they should not
  • Supply-chain compromises
  • Unknown outbound connections from apps
  • Limited control over approved software behaviour

Frequently asked questions

What does ring-fencing mean?

It means surrounding an application with controls that limit what it can access and do, even if it is approved.

Does ring-fencing replace antivirus?

No. It adds a layer of containment on top of antivirus and EDR.

Can it stop living-off-the-land attacks?

Yes. It limits what trusted tools like PowerShell and Office macros can do.

Is ring-fencing hard to manage?

We configure and maintain the policies for you, tuning them as your software environment changes.
