Application Control offers unparalleled application security and identity management for organizations of various sizes. By being incorporated into the Check Point Next Generation Firewalls (NGFW), Application Control allows businesses to develop precise policies tailored to specific users or groups, which helps in detecting, blocking, or restricting the use of applications and widgets. Applications are categorized using various criteria, such as type, security risk, resource consumption, and their potential impact on productivity. This feature provides meticulous oversight of social networks, applications, and their functionalities, enabling the identification, approval, blocking, or limitation of usage. It utilizes an extensive global application library that categorizes apps to streamline policy formulation while safeguarding against threats and malware. With its integration into Next Generation Firewalls, it facilitates the unification of security measures, resulting in reduced costs for organizations. As a result, only authorized users and devices can access your safeguarded resources, ensuring enhanced security for the organization. This robust framework not only protects assets but also empowers businesses to manage their application environments effectively.

ManageEngine Mobile Device Manager Plus is a comprehensive enterprise mobility management solution that helps IT teams manage, secure, and support every mobile device across their organization from a single centralized console. Managing mobile devices across diverse operating systems, ownership models, and locations has become one of the most complex challenges for modern IT teams. Employees use personal and corporate devices interchangeably, remote workers access sensitive corporate data from smartphones and tablets, and IT teams struggle to maintain visibility and control without disrupting employee productivity. Mobile Device Manager Plus addresses these challenges by supporting smartphones, tablets, laptops, and rugged devices across Android, iOS, iPadOS, macOS, Windows, and Chrome OS from one unified platform. Over-the-air enrollment eliminates the need for physical device handling, while configuration profile deployment ensures every device is set up with the right Wi-Fi, VPN, email, and security settings from day one. Application management gives IT teams complete control over which apps can be installed, used, and distributed across managed devices. Corporate and personal data are strictly separated on BYOD devices through containerization, protecting sensitive information without invading employee privacy. Remote lock, wipe, and alarm capabilities ensure lost or stolen devices can be secured instantly before data is compromised. Enterprise email security restricts access to approved apps and trusted recipients, while kiosk mode locks dedicated devices to approved business applications only. Role-based access controls and compliance reporting give IT teams the audit trail they need to demonstrate regulatory compliance.
