Application Control
Control software execution so approved business applications remain available.
Overview
Unauthorised software and unwanted tools can run through permitted user access, while rules that differ by device, team or location make application decisions difficult. Frequent poorly managed exceptions can also block legitimate business software or leave IT teams unable to distinguish approved software from unapproved executables.
Application Control applies defined execution rules and provides a clear basis for permitting or blocking an application. Approved applications remain available to authorised users, and exceptions are recorded and handled consistently. Rules can be maintained as applications are introduced, changed or retired, reducing ad hoc decisions and unrestricted application execution.
