Safe Lock is a trust list-based solution that locks down
computers, preventing all applications not on the Approved List
from running. Safe Lock can be configured and maintained using
the graphical user interface (GUI) agent console or the command
line interface (CLI). System updates can be applied without
turning off Application Lockdown at the endpoint through the
Predefined Trusted Updater List or by using the Trusted
Updater.
Consider this typical use case scenario:
-
Set up the Approved List and turn on Application Lockdown on the endpoint so that
unapproved applications cannot be run.
-
Use the Trusted Updater to update or install software whose installer is not on the
Predefined Trusted Updater list.
-
Configure and enable the Restricted User account for later maintenance.
If someone tries to run an application not specifically on the Approved List, the
following message displays:
