About ManageEngine Application Control Plus
Application Control Plus is an enterprise solution that leverages application control and privilege management features to fortify endpoint security. With application discovery, rule-based whitelisting/blacklisting, management of application-specific privileges, and just-in-time access enabled for temporary requirements, this software ensures that it caters to the end-to-end application needs of businesses. Ensure complete endpoint security by creating whitelists of applications that you trust, and keep all untrusted applications out of your network. Protect your risky legacy OS machines by deploying application control policies that prevent vulnerable applications without a patch from running. Augment the security of customer-facing systems such as point-of-sale or fixed-function machines by simulating an environment under lockdown using policies run in Strict Mode.

Admin By Request EPM gives organizations control over who and what can elevate on their endpoints, without standing up servers, databases, or a dedicated admin team to run it. The model is least privilege: a user or an application receives the specific access its task requires and nothing more. This closes off a common attack route, since permanent local admin rights are what an attacker inherits when malware executes or a credential is stolen.
Removing admin rights does not push users back into support queues. When someone needs a longer stretch of elevated work, they run an Admin Session that expires on its own. When they need only one program elevated, Run As Admin handles that alone and leaves the rest of the system unprivileged. Requests can be approved through the portal, the mobile app, or the API. Files receive an OPSWAT MetaDefender reputation check before elevation, and software that has already been vetted can clear automatically through pre-approval or the AI and Machine Learning approval engine.
A single agent supports Windows, macOS, and Linux and behaves the same whether the endpoint is online or offline. Auditing and inventory are included as standard.
