Executable Lockdown
Block All Unauthorized Executable Programs
No matter how forcefully you lay down the law, you know there will still be some users on your network who will go out to the Internet and download unauthorized programs. Of particular concern are those executable files that can contain malware, spyware, viruses destined to disrupt your network's healthy operations. Even if you manage to block all executable downloads, your users are unwitting, and will bring destructive files in on their flash drives or CDs for local installation.
Executable Lockdown prohibits the installation of all unauthorized executable files, period. It doesn't matter whether your users download them from the internet, transfer them over FTP, or attempt to install them from a flash drive or other media source, Executable Lockdown blocks the installation program cold in its tracks. Best of all, Executable Lockdown works on all executable files, including .EXE, .COM, .SYS, .DPL, and more!
As soon as you install Executable Lockdown, the app creates a White List of existing applications which includes all existing apps and executables on your computer. After that, your network becomes an impenetrable fortress, with all new executable files blocked, no matter what their source. Only you, as administrator, can give permission for a new file to launch, and only you have the password! No need to worry when you need to install new software or perform system updates, either - you can stop the Executable Lockdown service on the fly, at any time, without rebooting!
