New applications added to Application Control policy in the 4.49 data release

Hi,

Here are the latest applications added to the application control policy in the 4.49 data release. The applications advertised in my previous post for the 4.48 data should now also be available for SAV 9 customers (apologies for any confusion).

This release sees us pass the 500 controlled applications mark!

More details can be found on the application security analysis pages:

We're planning a couple of new categories next year so I'd welcome suggestions for applications to include in the "Steganography" and "Tethered Connection Tool" (3G connection software) categories.

Thanks,

John (Product Manager)
