Restricted Application
In SecureAge Central, you can control the behaviour of applications in CatchPulse that download, extract, or copy files from external sources.
By default, CatchPulse trusts files with valid digital signatures, automatically designating them as trusted installers, which could unintentionally allow harmful applications to gain trust without user intervention.
To prevent automatic trust assignment to newly created executable files, mitigate the risk by adding applications to the Restricted Applications list. This will ensure that potentially harmful applications are not unintentionally granted trust.
For instance, Google Chrome, known for its file downloading capabilities, poses such a risk, as its signed status could lead to automatic trust designation for its executables; hence, administrators would need to add chrome.exe to the Restricted Applications List to prevent this automatic trust assignment and maintain system security.
Specify applications that should have limitations on their operation within your organization.
