Fast, flexible, and scalable protection against zero-day and advanced persistent threats
McAfee Application Control blocks unauthorized executables on servers, corporate desktops, and fixed-function devices.
Block threats without list management or signature updates
Save time and lower costs using a dynamic trust model, local and global reputation intelligence, real-time behavioral analytics, and auto-immunization of endpoints.
Stop unwanted applications
Block executable files, libraries, drivers, Java apps, ActiveX controls, scripts, and specialty code.
Protect fixed-function, legacy systems, and modern IT investments
Safeguard older operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows NT, 2000, and XP as well as recent operating systems such as Microsoft Windows 10.
Reduce patch cycles and protect memory
Maintain regular patch cycles and prevent whitelisted applications from being exploited via memory buffer overflow attacks on Windows 32- and 64-bit systems.
Thwart threats with intelligent whitelisting
Reduce risks from unauthorized applications and code
Know the reputation of every file and application in your environment and categorize them as good, bad, and unknown with real-time McAfee Global Threat Intelligence combined with local intelligence from McAfee Threat Intelligence Exchange, an optional module sold separately.
Leverage three whitelisting options
Default Deny allows software execution based on an approved whitelist or authorization by trusted channels. Detect and Deny allows software execution through signature-less reputation verification, and Verify and Deny allows the execution of applications that are verified by sandbox testing.
Balance protection and performance
Additional detection engines, including signatures, reputation, and real-time emulation, reduce the number of files requiring more resource-intensive malware sandbox analysis.
