Application control prevents execution and installation of applications, and prevents them from running scripts.
Note: Application control is available only in F-Secure Computer Protection Premium for Windows and F-Secure Server Protection Premium for Windows.
Application Control reduces the risks that malicious, illegal, and unauthorized software pose in the corporate environment. It provides the following features:
- Security (part of initial launch): Pre-configured security rules designed by F-Secure penetration testers cover attack vectors that are used to breach into corporate environments.
- Policy enforcement (to be launched in the near future): Based on a simple rule editor, policy enforcement helps the administrator define which applications are blocked, allowed, or monitored.
- Application inventory (planned to be launched later): Offers the administrator a comprehensive view of the applications that are running on specific devices or in a company.
