Block 98% of Malware Before It Executes – With
Smart Application Control
What Application Control Framework Does
Application control framework creates a definitive approved list of software that can execute on your systems. Everything else gets blocked automatically.
The Australian Signals Directorate ranks this as the #1 most effective cyber defense, as it stops 98% of malware. Yet most businesses still lack this basic defense.
The ACSC ranks application control as the #1 mitigation in the Essential Eight, blocking 98% of malware before it runs.
It’s also a core requirement of Essential Eight Cyber Security standards. Without it, ransomware costs Australian businesses an average of $1.35M.
Your Current Security Posture Likely Fits One Of These Levels
Level 0:
Complete Vulnerability
Your systems allow any software to run without restriction. Users can download and install applications freely. No Application Control in place. No Malware Protection, no compliance with Essential Eight Cyber Security.
Level 1:
Basic Protection
You’ve implemented some restrictions, blocking obvious malware file types and maintaining a list of approved business applications. While this stops common threats, sophisticated attacks can still bypass these basic controls through legitimate software vulnerabilities.
Level 2
Comprehensive Defense
Your application control system uses cryptographic verification to ensure only authorized software versions can execute. Publisher certificates are verified, and any exceptions are automatically logged for security review.
Level 3:
Advanced Security
Memory-level execution monitoring combined with AI detects even the most sophisticated threats. Your systems integrate with global threat intelligence feeds, adapting to new attack methods before they can impact your business.
We help businesses progress through these maturity levels at a pace that matches their operational needs and budget constraints.
