New applications added to Application Control policy in the 4.48 data release

Hi,

For those interested I'm planning each month to post a list of new applications which can be detected using the Application Control policy within SEC. This month has been a particularly prolific one for SophosLabs as we've added detection for 42 new applications. Most of these identities have been created following requests made by customers via the form accessible within the security analysis pages: http://www.sophos.com/security/analyses/controlled-applications/

More detail on each application can be found on the relevant analysis page.

Best regards,

John Stringer (Product Manager)

  • How long does it take before these new applications show up in the list in the console?

    We have been having issues where applications have been getting blocked but aren't in the list .. it's not until we authorize "All added by Sophos in the future" that these applications are authorized.
