About Ivanti Application Control

Ivanti Application Control is an elite, enterprise-grade cybersecurity asset designed to significantly shrink an organization's attack surface without killing daily productivity.

Ivanti Application Control is an elite, enterprise-grade cybersecurity asset designed to significantly shrink an organization's attack surface without killing daily productivity. Its unique Trusted Ownership engine beautifully solves the traditional challenge of whitelisting by automating rule creation based on file origin rather than static lists. Combined with rock-solid memory protection and granular local privilege controls, it delivers proactive defense against zero-day exploits and ransomware. While its sophisticated management system is too complex for basic small business environments, it remains a premier standard for large enterprises seeking bulletproof, compliant security across complex endpoint networks.

Pros & Cons

Pros
  • Helps control software costs by accurately tracking per-device usage limits across the organization.
  • Blocks fileless malware and zero-day memory exploits before traditional antivirus tools can detect them.
  • Reliably eliminates local admin risks while preserving user productivity through seamless self-elevation features.
  • Simplifies application whitelisting by focusing on file owners rather than maintenance-heavy file lists
Cons
  • Mastering the granular console layout requires dedicated training for junior IT teams.
  • Managing local agents across large enterprise environments requires solid network coordination.
  • Poorly calibrated lockdown templates can cause high volumes of helpdesk requests from blocked users.
  • Configuring rule sets, group inheritances, and kernel-level policies requires an experienced IT administrator.

Features

Key features

Advanced Application Archiving

Securely copies and isolates suspicious or prohibited application files that users attempt to execute, creating an isolated laboratory environment for security research.

Digital Signature & Hash Validation

Uses cryptographic verification to block spoofed or modified files from executing, even if they match a trusted file name.

On-Demand Helpdesk Change Requests

Allows users to submit rapid, real-time requests for immediate access or privilege elevation through automated ticketing connections when unexpected software blocking occurs.

Heuristic Memory & Buffer Protection

Employs deep kernel-level analysis to block malicious buffer-overflow attempts and heap exploits that target vulnerabilities directly inside computer memory.

Dynamic Local Admin Elimination

Strips dangerous administrative access tokens from local user accounts while allowing specific business-critical setup routines or panels to run with elevated privileges on an as-needed basis.

Trusted Ownership Model

Automatically validates files based on who introduced them to the system. If an untrusted user copies an executable file onto a machine, it is blocked by default, completely avoiding the nightmare of managing massive lists of file names.

Additional features

Granular Rule Collections

Groups authorization variables safely across file attributes, hashes, folder addresses, and storage volumes.

Rule Sets Hierarchy Sorting

Evaluates context parameters across User, Everyone, Group, Scripted, Process, or Device contexts to control application launches.

Kernel-Level File System Shields

Restricts unwanted system changes by wrapping running applications in continuous rule checks.

Dynamic List Generation

Adjusts protective parameter definitions smoothly without slowing down end-user workspaces.

Microsoft Per-Device License Tracking

Limits software abuse by tracking and locking how many copies of an application run simultaneously across a business network.

Aggregated Compliance Analytics

Feeds endpoint threat data directly into central reporting dashboards (via Ivanti Management Center or Xtraction software) to give teams comprehensive visibility into security exceptions.

Browser Redirection Controls

Safeguards enterprise browsing by isolating unauthorized links or matching untrusted URLs to secure sandboxes.
