Overview

Product Information on Carbon Black App Control

Updated 13th October 2025

What is Carbon Black App Control?

Carbon Black App Control is a software designed to provide application whitelisting and endpoint protection by allowing organizations to control which applications are permitted to run on their systems. The software enables centralized management and monitoring of executable files and scripts, helping reduce the attack surface by enforcing strict policies on software execution. Carbon Black App Control addresses the business problem of unauthorized software installations and potential malicious activity by ensuring that only approved applications run on endpoints, thereby supporting compliance requirements and contributing to overall security posture. The software features real-time visibility into application usage and change control, helping organizations efficiently prevent unwanted changes and maintain system integrity.

Carbon Black App Control Pricing

Carbon Black App Control software uses a subscription-based pricing model which typically varies based on the number of endpoints and the length of the subscription term. Pricing for this software may also be influenced by deployment options and additional features required by the organization.
