Changing the policy under which the application is blocked

To change the policy that blocks an application:
  1. Select SECURITY SETTINGS > Application Control Manager to display the Application Control Manager. Each row represents an application to be blocked.
  2. In the Application Control Manager window, check the checkboxes of the desired application rows, and then select the Policy Assignment option. The following displays.

    The policies that have a checkbox to their left have already been assigned all the selected applications. The policies that have a green minus sign to their left have already been assigned some of the applications. The right side of the window indicates how many of the applications that you selected in the Application Control Manager window have been assigned to that policy. The policies that have an empty box to their left were not assigned any of the selected applications.

  3. In the Policy Assignment window, check (or uncheck) the checkboxes of the policies that should block the currently selected applications.
  4. Click the Save button.
Note

Alternatively, in order to modify the policy to which a specific application is assigned, select the Edit button in the Application Control Manager window in the right side of that application’s row.
