The following diagram illustrates everything that happens within the Application Control Solution (ACS) lifecycle.

 

File Inventory

After you install ACS, you must install the File Inventory Agent on managed computers. The File Inventory Agent obtains a list of files discovered on the managed computers. The File Inventory Agent uses two policies to obtain inventory:

  • Default File Discovery Policy - creates an inventory of applications that are installed on the managed computer.
     
  • Default File Inventory Policy - collects information about specific applications, such as Win32 Executable and Digital Certificate information.
