In today’s environment multiple layers of security are required in addition to traditional tools like firewalls and antivirus. This is because everyday thousands of new threats and legitimate programs are introduced before their signature is added to antivirus databases, thus an additional method of application validation is required.

Additional tools, such as whitelisting, better secure your environment but can add complexity to IT operations. This is because it’s not enough to allow or block certain applications. Whitelisting requires you to handle software updates, new applications, requests from users – it’s an ever-changing process. And what about the executables not yet classified … are they simply blocked, possibly impeding productivity?

Join us as noted Group Policy expert and Group Policy MVP Jeremy Moskowitz will describe some “in the box” ways to make your world more secure, using tools you already have, such as AppLocker and BitLocker. You’ll learn what Group Policy can and cannot do on its own to manage desktop security, specifically addressing whitelisting and administrative rights challenges.

Viewfinity will follow-up with a demonstration that shows the benefits of using application control and privilege management together. You’ll also learn how Viewfinity automates the handling of whitelisting, blacklisting and executables not yet classified, without creating additional work for IT. Register today!
