Who will be interested in this feature?
AppLocker can help organizations that want to:
Limit the number and type of files that are allowed to run by preventing unlicensed or malicious software from running and by restricting the ActiveX controls that are installed.
Reduce the total cost of ownership by ensuring that workstations are homogeneous across their enterprise and that users are running only the software and applications that are approved by the enterprise.
Reduce the possibility of information leaks from unauthorized software.
AppLocker may also be of interest to organizations that currently use Group Policy objects (GPOs) to manage Windows-based computers or have per-user application installations.
