BOUNCER by CoreTrace:  Trusted Change

Change-ready Application Whitelisting

In order to effectively lower TCO, Application Whitelisting solutions MUST have some way of automating changes to protected systems. Any solution that cannot is a form of "lockdown" — where every single installation, upgrade, or update sits in a queue waiting for IT staff to evaluate, approve, or deny the change. You get complete control but at a huge cost in person-hours and user frustration.

Trusted Change is BOUNCER's patent-pending answer to lockdown. By allowing several trusted ways in which users can upgrade their systems or install new, approved applications, BOUNCER lowers endpoint TCO and IT frustrations while maintaining rock-solid security at all points in the chain.

You define the boundaries of trust in advance, and you base them upon what makes sense for your enterprise, e.g.,

  • Do you use a network software share, or maybe one by each department?
  • Do you have a patch management system that automates delivery to endpoints?
  • Do you want users to be able to download applications digitally signed by a particular company (including your own)?
  • Do you have road-warriors or other users that need to install new applications or drivers while traveling and disconnected from your network?

However you choose to define trust in your enterprise, BOUNCER's Trusted Change can work with you. Users operate within your pre-defined parameters to install applications. Once a change is complete, BOUNCER automatically generates a delta whitelist and records the configuration change for reporting purposes. Users are happy, safe and productive, and the your IT team is not crushed under an ongoing barrage of reactive help desk calls.
