Savant has the ability to allow every machine to have a different secure configuration - it also understands legitimate updates and installs from secure or signed locations It wins it the support area, which is your biggest cost.

Ed and Joel, What was the value proposition of these products over the built in Windows Enterprise AppLocker?

Some initial hesitancy from faculty (who seem hesitant at most things anyway) but works well, low "technical debt" for support. Contact me off line if you need further!

It has a different type of approach to security – to permit only known trusted software to run on your systems as opposed to attempting to block software that matches to known “bad” signatures or is otherwise identified as “bad”. I would be glad to hear any experience you have with Bit9, especially with the software installed on servers. Also, would be glad for any info/feedback on any other similar products too. Thanks for any feedback you can provide. Thanks, Greg Greg Schmalhofer Information Security Coordinator Millersville University
