What is one important feature of CyberArk's application control?

One important feature of CyberArk's application control is that all applications must be approved before use. This approach enhances the organization's security posture by ensuring that only trusted and verified applications are permitted to run on endpoints. By requiring prior approval, the organization can mitigate risks associated with unauthorized software, such as malware or unverified applications that could compromise sensitive data or system integrity. This proactive measure helps maintain a secure environment where potential threats are significantly reduced, aligning with best practices for application security.

In contrast, the other options suggest a lack of restrictions or oversight, which would be counterproductive to maintaining a secure computing environment. Allowing applications to run unrestricted or bypassing security protocols would expose systems to considerable vulnerabilities. Similarly, permitting execution of all applications by default negates the critical control that CyberArk’s application control is designed to provide.
