Info

Manual Security Ratings are generally not used, but are included for backward compatibility with ACS 6.1.  Typically combinations of Reference System whitelists, Package Contents whitelists and trust based Dynamic Filters are used instead of manual Security Ratings.

Application Control Solution lets you rate all discovered applications. You can add them to rate executables as Blacklist, WhitelistOrangelist, or Graylist collections, which Unclassified or Whitelist which automatically adds them to the appropriate collections. These Manual Security Rating collections can be used for filtering when creating Application Control policies.
