Hi,
Windows 7 addresses the growing desire for application control solutions in the enterprise with the introduction of AppLocker: a simple and flexible mechanism that allows administrators to specify exactly what is allowed to run in their desktop environment. As a result, AppLocker provides not only security protections, but also operational and compliance benefits by:
* Keeping unlicensed software from running in your desktop environment
* Preventing vulnerable, unauthorized applications from running in your desktop environment, including malware
* Stopping users from running applications that needlessly consume network bandwidth or otherwise impact the enterprise computing environment
* Preventing users from running applications that destabilize their desktop environment and increase help desk support costs.
