Stop unauthorized programs from running on your computer.
Is your computer adequately protected from viruses?
While antivirus software is important for your computer, it does not provide full protection against viruses and malicious software. Computer threats are becoming more complex and are rapidly increasing in number each day. Even reputable websites can be infected. According to a December 2010 Gartner Group report,
A Buyer's Guide to Endpoint Protection Platforms, signature-based antivirus products detect only 25% to 50% of new threats. Traditional antivirus software simply can't keep up anymore.
What is application whitelisting?
Application whitelisting is the next generation approach to defeating malicious software. Essentially you decide what applications are allowed to run on your computer. All other applications, including viruses, are blocked from running. Application whitelisting software automatically enforces your approved list, rather than trying to keep up with an exponentially growing "blacklist" of malicious software.
