Use Case: White List Only

by Alex Shoykhet 15. October 2009 11:47

Business Need
Is it possible to setup and manage white listed only applications versus having to maintain a list and block all unapproved software?

Viewfinity Capability
Viewfinity can be configured to support a "white list only" model so that when an end user logs in, his/her desktop is configured to only present and run the applications that are required for them to work. Other standard desktop applications are not available — no games, IM, iTunes, etc. are visible.

See it in several Easy Steps

ROI Considerations
  • Reduces end user support and malware incidents
  • Improves network and asset utilization by restricting the use of non business-critical applications
  • Ensures business-critical applications are meeting corporate configuration standards
