Application Control
Create a single governed lifecycle for permitted application use.
Overview
Many organisations lack a single authoritative definition of permitted application use, producing inconsistent entitlement decisions, unclear operational ownership and ad hoc exception handling. Those gaps create commercial risk from licence misuse, ambiguity over who is responsible for applications and exposure against regulatory obligations.
Application Control defines policy, approval roles and a managed lifecycle for application use, together with documented exception processes and compliance checkpoints. The scope covers policy definition, approvals, lifecycle management and exceptions while excluding implementation design, infrastructure operations and procurement execution, producing auditable decisions and clear accountability across the live IT estate.
