We actually use Bit9 for app whitelisting, so we do have another layer of security there.

We essentially use their defaults. We have had to make some exceptions here and there, but that's no different from AV.

We're running the McAfee suite, which includes AV & HIPS. If we get rid of McAfee (the goal), we lose host intrusion prevention. Is anyone using another product, or is this even a concern for you?
