Sophos Anti-Virus for Windows 2000+: Managing Application Control

In order to streamline the installation and maintenance of Application Control on your network, Sophos recommends that you:

1. Plan a phased deployment of Application Control. This will allow you to assess the impact on your users and minimize any inconvenience. Details of how to do this can be found in
   • Application Control Upgrade Guide. Refer to this if you already had Sophos Anti-Virus version 6.0.4 and above installed, or if you upgraded to version 6.0.4 from an earlier version.
   • Sophos Anti-Virus and Application Control Startup Guide. Refer to this if you made a fresh installation of Sophos Anti-Virus for Windows 2000+, version 6.
2. Sign up for Application Control News, an email that lists identities that are going to be released. A list of forthcoming identities will also be published monthly in a knowledgebase article.
3. Set up a procedure that you can perform each month, in advance of any new applications being added to the potentially unwanted application list.
