Are your desktop and laptop PCs polluted with software you don't know about? Users can download and install almost any software, making policy enforcement a critical issue. Many organizations are experimenting with Windows lockdown -- the removal of administrative rights in Windows XP and User Account Controls in the upcoming release of Windows Vista -- as a way to combat the explosion of user-installed software. Yet as user downloads become more sophisticated, the all-or-nothing approach is spawning the emerging field of application control. Michael Silver examines the nature of desktop lockdown and discusses approaches for achieving application control.
