It’s noway been easier to choose who, what, when, where, why and the way applications are used on your network. WatchGuard Application Control tightens security across your extended network and adds productivity safeguards that go straight to your commercial bottom line. It enables IT administrators to simply cover and control access to web and business applications, enforcing policies, adding employee productivity, and protecting their networks from potential threats as a results of risky application usage. Administrators also have the power to block sub-functions within applications, including file transfers, media and chat functions, and peer-to-peer connections.
Applications can use tons of bandwidth, limiting the available bandwidth for important business operations. Ensure dedicated bandwidth is available at all times for business-critical applications by setting throttle limits. Administrators can set throttle limits to make sure these critical applications are always available for the whole association or perhaps a selected group of employees.
Enforce policies on over 1,800 applications. Quickly and simply select to allow, block, or restrict access to applications supported a user’s department, job function, and time of day using a centralized dashboard. WatchGuard Application Control gives administrators the granularity needed to satisfy their organization’s needs by enforcing specific policies per user or group.
Get real-time and historical visibility into the applications getting used on your network, including the highest applications, categories, and user-specific data. you’ll also generate detailed reports for in-depth analysis across your entire network. Use this information to demonstrate compliance, evaluate employee needs, and refine acceptable use policies.
Application Control reviews traffic flowing through the Firebox and identifies traffic patterns that match a configurable application list. Application control then allows, denies, or throttles the connection supported policy configurations.
