Hi All!

 

One of the customer have approximately 150 authorized software and they are insisting to build a funtionality to blacklist each and every software outside their authorized softwares. If any software other than authorized ones is installed on any machine in the environment, it should be flagged.

 

Is there any possible solution to have this implemented? Your response/insight is highly valuable.

Hi @Vaibhav Sharma1 ,

    You can achieve that but the problem with that will be at one point of time the database will end up having many software models and the clean up process for them becomes very painful. But the solution to what you are looking will be, there is an option to create Software model automatically when it got discovered so you have to enable that property and change Restricted software checkbox to true as default value. So with this whenever a new software got discovered on the machine the system will create the software model automatically and restricted software will be true for them by default so when the scheduled job for restricted software runs it will create the reclamation candidates.

Hope this helps!!
