Whitelisting Reference Systems

In this scenario you will create a reference system whitelist policy that targets a collection of computers, searches for Windows executables, then adds any Windows executables not currently in a security catalog to a whitelist. You will also add applications already included in a security catalog to the whitelist.

1. In the Altiris Console, click the Tasks tab.

2. In the left pane, right-click Tasks > Security Management > Application Control > Windows > Application Control Tasks > Application Control Policies.

3. Select New > Reference System Whitelist.

4. In the right pane, configure the fields as follows:

? Check Enable.

? Computers - Leave the default setting, All Windows Computers with
Application Control Agent Installed.

? Reference System Options, Computers - In the dialog, select the computer collection you wish to target with the policy.

? File Specification(s) - In the dialog, select Executables in Windows
Directories.

? Reporting Filter - In the dialog, select Executables in Windows Directories not present in Security Catalogs.
