With regards to this specific part of our post, CoreTrace's application whitelisting solution, BOUNCER, starts by automatically generating a perfect whitelist directly from any given computer--a list of all applications. This locks the computer in that condition and no new unauthorized applications (including malware) will be allowed to run, ever. Thanks for the question, Leo.

A good solution must start from the premise of first preventing any new malware from getting on the system and not disabling unknown applications. Doing otherwise will result in users with applications that crash because of their new whitelisting implementation." Pardon me, so how do you implement application whitelisting? “Prevent user revolt – first do no harm – Application whitelisting can not rely upon a master approved list and arbitrarily shut off unknown applications.
