Application Control
Control Data Access by Application
TRIAS Application Control ensures only approved applications can access, process, or transmit sensitive data. Whitelist trusted applications, block unauthorized software, and prevent malware from accessing your critical files—reducing attack surface and enforcing security policies.
Block unauthorized apps
Default deny policy
Complete monitoring
Real-time blocking
Application Security Challenges
Risks from uncontrolled applications
Shadow IT Applications
Employees install unauthorized apps that bypass security controls. Personal cloud sync, file sharing, messaging apps create data leakage.
Malware Data Theft
Malware, spyware, keyloggers access sensitive files. Traditional antivirus misses zero-day threats and fileless malware.
Data Exfiltration Tools
Legitimate tools weaponized for data theft: PowerShell, command line, browser developer tools, remote access software.
Compliance Violations
Regulations require controlling which apps process regulated data. Cannot demonstrate application-level access controls to auditors.
TRIAS Application Control
Granular control over application behavior
Application Whitelisting
Define approved applications that can access sensitive data. Block all others by default—zero-trust application security model.
Behavioral Monitoring
Monitor application behavior in real-time. Detect suspicious activities: unauthorized file access, network connections, registry changes.
Granular Permissions
Control what approved apps can do: read-only, no clipboard, no screenshots, no printing. Per-app DLP policies.
Dynamic Trust Scoring
AI-powered trust scoring for applications. Automatically adjust permissions based on app reputation, behavior, digital signatures.
Application Control Types
Multiple enforcement methods
Whitelist Mode
Only pre-approved applications allowed. Block everything else—highest security, recommended for sensitive environments.
Blacklist Mode
Block specific high-risk applications. Allow everything else—balance security with user flexibility.
Restricted Mode
Allow applications but restrict their capabilities. Read-only access, no data export, no network access.
Learning Mode
Observe application usage without blocking. Build baseline, generate whitelist recommendations automatically.
Control Features
Process Monitoring
Track all running processes, command-line arguments, parent-child relationships. Detect process injection, DLL hijacking.
Script Control
Control PowerShell, Python, bash, VBScript execution. Require approval for scripts accessing sensitive data.
Browser Extension Control
Monitor Chrome, Edge, Firefox extensions. Block extensions that can exfiltrate data or capture credentials.
Macro Protection
Block malicious macros in Office documents. Allow trusted macros only, prevent macro-based malware.
Application Sandboxing
Isolate untrusted applications in sandbox. Prevent access to sensitive files, network resources, system changes.
Digital Signature Verification
Verify application publishers, code signing certificates. Trust only signed applications from verified publishers.
Application Control Use Cases
Prevent Shadow IT
Block unauthorized cloud sync apps, personal file sharing tools. Enforce use of approved enterprise applications only.
Ransomware Prevention
Block unknown executables from accessing files. Prevent ransomware encryption of documents and databases.
Developer Workstation Security
Allow development tools while protecting source code. Prevent IDEs from uploading code to unauthorized repositories.
Compliance Enforcement
Ensure only approved applications process PHI, PCI, PII data. Demonstrate application-level controls to auditors.
Control Application Access to Data
Prevent unauthorized applications from accessing your sensitive information
