AppSense Application Manager

AppSense Application Manager

Stop Spyware, Trojans and Crimeware Now!

Whether downloaded from the Internet, received as email attachments, or retrieved from removable storage media such as USB Flash drives and CD-ROM, AppSense Application Manager offers 100% proactive protection against script-based and executable viruses, trojans, spyware, peer to peer and hacking tools.

AppSense Application Manager also provides control over many other types of application content, including ActiveX, Screen Savers, VBScripts, Batch files, Windows Installer packages and Registry configuration files. Self-extracting zip archives are safely extracted using the built-in Zip Extractor.

License Compliancy & Application Access Control

Another common area of concern for Administrators is licensing and controlling which applications users have access to. AppSense Application Manager can limit the users or groups of users who have permission to run applications and limits can be placed on the number of application instances running, the timing of when users run a program and for how long.

AppSense Application Manager Key Features

Here are a list of the key features of Application Manager:-

Trusted Ownership

By integrating closely with NTFS security, AppSense Application Manager automatically protects the system without the need for complex configurations and constant management. A pre-determined list of 'trusted owners' quickly determines which applications are unwanted. By default, only Administrators are trusted, which ensures only applications installed by an Administrator are allowed to run. Complete configurability means you can extend your trusted owner list as required.

Black and White List Configuration

Process large numbers of files and folders seamlessly with white and black list configurations. Define black lists to protect against known threats and problem applications, or create white lists to guarantee only known and trusted applications can execute on a system.

Rule Based Configuration

Application execution policies can be added for individual users, group or clients by adding rules. Each rule contains a white list of accessible items and a black list of prohibited items. Extended configuration of execution policies can also be applied on a rule-by-rule basis.

Digital Signatures

Add digital signatures to your configuration for advanced security. Digital signature checking gives the Administrator peace of mind knowing that the applications and files installed on a system remain unaltered, maintaining system integrity and lowering maintenance costs. Creating digital signature groups allows for simplified management of larger and more complex configurations.

Application Limits and Time Restrictions

Application limits can be used to enforce corporate license policies, ensuring only authorized users can run business applications. A further level of control over application access can be achieved by applying time restrictions so users can only run programs during certain hours and for a certain length of time.

MMC Interface

A rich Microsoft Management Console provides centralized management of rules. Configurations can be automatically packaged for distribution by either Windows Installer using AppSense's enterprise Deployment system or an alternative deployment mechanism of your choice.

Rules Analyzer Console

The Rules Analyzer console allows administrators to troubleshoot any issues with an applied configuration. XML-based log files provide simplified access to information on why an application was or was not allowed to run.

Passive Monitoring

Monitor unauthorized execution attempts without preventing users from running the applications. Passive monitoring can be enabled or disabled on a per user, group or per computer basis and provides an extremely useful tool to accurately track user behavior prior to full implementation.

Zip Files and Windows Installer Packages

Safely open Self-Extracting Zip files using the built-in Zip Extractor. Restrict access to Windows Installer packages by specifying rules governing which packages are allowed to run.

VBScripts and Batch Files

Prevent attacks from malicious code and viruses by ensuring users can only invoke scripts that have been authorized by the Administrator. Scripts such as Windows Script Host files and DOS Batch scripts are validated against rules to see if they are allowed to run. Added security can be achieved by applying Digital Signature checks to ensure that script content remains unaltered.
