Features
The Application Control feature allows you to selectively restrict or allow the use of applications on your corporate computers.
Please note that Application Control is not automatically part of the basic DriveLock functionality. If you have not entered a license for it, this node will not appear in your DriveLock Management Console. Depending on the license, some functionalities, such as application behavior control, may not be available.
DriveLock Application Control includes several functions:
- Application rules: You can use blacklisting and/or whitelisting to define simple rules as to which applications are executed and which are blocked. This lets you control the use of any application on computers where DriveLock is installed. Application unblocking or blocking can be defined based on various filter properties.
-
Application behavior rules: Define exactly what applications are allowed to do, for example, the permissions they get, the directories they can write to, and the processes they can start. By recording application behavior via remote agent control, you can automatically generate application behavior rules.
- Local learning: In addition to the rules you define in policies, you can also make the DriveLock Agent learn locally what DriveLock Application Control allows.
