Application Control

Organizations usually face the following concerns while using applications:

• No illegal or fake applications should be installed on client systems.
• Malicious applications should not infect the systems.
• Unnecessary applications should not clog the systems.
  With this feature, you can authorize or unauthorize the users to access and work with certain applications, so that no one accesses an unwanted application.
  You can create various policies based on the requirement of the groups or departments. For example, for the users of the Marketing Department, you can allow access to File Sharing Applications and Web Browser while restrict access to all other applications. For the Accounts Department, you can allow access to Archive Tools and Web Browsers only.

  Note
  The Application Control feature is available only in the clients with Windows operating systems.
