Whitelisting Technology Improves Security, Reliability and Performance Via Trusted Change

Traditional approaches to endpoint protection have become ineffective in today’s dynamic computing environments. Battling the onslaught of viruses, malware, and plain old poorly designed applications has become a reactive game with a losing proposition. To escape this mode of always falling one step behind emerging threats, you need a new endpoint security model.

An application whitelist provides the means to take charge of your information environment by making the shift from focusing only on what you know is bad to allowing only what you know to be good. This whitepaper will examine the many benefits of utilizing an application whitelisting solution such as Lumension Endpoint Protection, and take an in-depth look at the four key phases of rolling out such a solution:

• Discovering and monitoring your application ecosystem
• Rolling out pilots and clients
• Enforcing protection
• Fine-tuning your application ecosystem
