You can use Executable filters to apply security policies to commonly used applications, such as instant messaging applications, browsers, mail clients, media players and Microsoft Office Suite applications.
Executable Filters are powerful because they are built on "and" logic and not "or" logic, meaning that parameters for any type of executable can be filtered (excluded or included) cumulatively. This also enables you to target specific versions of applications.
