About Product
Description
Highly targeted assets demand perfect security, but can’t afford loss in performance. Critical systems are increasingly targeted because they contain the most valuable information. These systems cannot afford a moment of unscheduled downtime or performance degradation as they are the lifeblood of the organization. They often run on out-of-date or unsupported operating systems, which are costly to secure and support. The most common approach to defending these systems typically relies on layering multiple, ineffective security products, which is costly, creates risk and jeopardizes performance.
VMware Carbon Black App Control is an industry-leading application control product, used to lock down servers and critical systems, prevent unwanted changes and ensure continuous compliance with regulatory mandates. Leveraging cloud reputation services, IT-based trust policies and multiple sources of threat intelligence from the VMware Carbon Black Cloud, VMware Carbon Black App Control ensures that only trusted and approved software is allowed to execute on an organization’s critical systems and endpoints.
VMware Carbon Black App Control combines application whitelisting, file integrity monitoring, full-featured device control and memory/tamper protection into a single agent. VMware Carbon Black App Control watches for behavioral indicators of malicious activity and conducts continuous recording of attack details to provide rich visibility into everything suspicious that attackers attempt to do. With the addition of the File Delete feature, VMware Carbon Black App Control is now a direct control for requirement 5 of PCI DSS, enabling customers to remove traditional antivirus without the need for undergoing the compensating control process.
Security teams can harden their new and legacy systems against all unwanted change, simplify the compliance process, and provide the best possible protection for corporate systems at enterprise scale. VMware Carbon Black App Control is available through MSSPs or directly through on-premise.
KEY CAPABILITIES VMware Carbon Black App Control is a powerful positive security solution for data centers and critical systems that allows server admins to control change while consolidating agents. Using a ‘Default Deny’ approach, VMware Carbon Black App Control reduces your attack surface and downtime by automating approval of trusted software and eliminating the burden of whitelist management.
