Objet : Would you drop AV for Whitelisting / Application Control?



So I'm asking a bunch of questions here, because I'm looking at writing this

story from a few different angles. If the ratio Malware to good code is 80 - 20

(which it is +/- at the moment) why not drop AV all together and lock down those

workstations and only allow good code to run?   Saves budget.

 

Your view? Input?

Clearly these results are flawed if McAfee Anything gets higher than a -3 in 
any category. :-)

Whitelisting is the future IMHO.  You cant trust anything anymore.  Faith 
doesnt cut it.  You have to protect yourself and your assets, and whitelisting 
is the best way to do it.

I'm referring to Whitelisting in the context of security.  About 10 years ago, 
the ratio
"Good code" versus malware was perhaps 90 good 10 bad.  In that scenario, it 
makes
sense to keep the bad code out. But over the last 10 years, with automated 
malware
variant generation, the tables have turned, and there is actually more malware 
than
good code out there. So in -that- scenario it might make sense to only allow 
"good code"
and implement application control. Only that which is allowed, will run.

I'd like your feedback - input - discussion on this !

Warm regards,

Stu

Are you asking about web content filtering, email filtering, or some other type 
of "whitelisting?"
