• Getting Started with Ivanti Application Control

Application Control is a Ivanti Endpoint Security module that controls the applications and executable files that run on your managed network endpoints. To get started with Application Control, you should install the module’s server and endpoint components.

By applying an Easy Auditor policy, you can make an inventory of the applications and files on the network. You can then create trust policies to maintain and update applications with minimal administrative overhead. By monitoring the effects of these policies on the network, you can modify them to improve their effectiveness.

With trust policies in place, you can roll out Easy Lockdown across the network to enforce application control. Policies are also available to temporarily or permanently authorize new applications when required. You should continue monitoring the network after lockdown to ensure that it remains secure and its applications are running properly and being updated when necessary.
