APPLICATION CONTROL SOLUTION

Identify, Track and Control Applications

Companies today are struggling to manage the problem of unwanted software, including viruses, malware, unlicensed software, vulnerable software and non-business software. Application Control Solution allows you to inventory software applications, prevent occurrences of common malware, control system privileges applied to applications, and run non-trusted software in a virtualized layer.
 
Advanced Application Inventory
Application Control Solution gathers highly accurate application installation information from the environment based on MD5 and SHA1 hashes.This method of application determination increases accuracy over methods that utilize only .EXE file naming and version information discovery.
Application Authorization
Application Control Solution effectively controls what applications are allowed to be run in the environment. Execution management provides protection from malicious applications such as peer-to-peer software, spyware, and key loggers.
Privilege and Rights Management
You can significantly tighten security and limit vulnerability exposure with Application Control Solution by defining the associated rights with which applications are launched and the privileges associated with the application. In a locked down environment, elevated rights can be assigned to specific older applications, allowing them to run successfully. In an open environment, rights can be reduced on applications including Internet-facing applications to reduce the chances that malicious code can be run in your environment.
Benefits
  • Rapidly identify and track applications
  • Protect against zero-day exploits
  • Ban unauthorized or malicious applications
  • Implement least-privilege security best practices
