Control Apps

You can control applications through rules and through the App Discovery report in View App Details and the App Grid. The application settings are a rule component that enables controlling of supported apps, regardless of usage, at the policy level. The App Discovery report allows you to review apps in your organization and control apps individually.

Note: App blocking requires enablement within a rule. Apps that are not present in application settings, or do not have the Edit app controls, Control this app, or Block this app options in App Discovery cannot be blocked. If you need to block an app we don't have yet, contact Support to request it.
