How does Windows' in-built security component, AppLocker, whitelist applications?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

AppLocker whitelists applications by creating rules that specify which files are allowed to run. One of the primary methods for specifying these rules is through the use of Path Rules. Path Rules allow administrators to specify an allowed file or folder path, and any application within that path is permitted to run. This method is particularly useful for allowing applications from a known directory while blocking others that are not explicitly approved.

C) Using Certificate Rule is my pick. Trusts the publisher's certificate.

I thought AppLocker had something to do with Internet Zone Rules, but that might be for a different security feature.

I feel like I saw a practice question about AppLocker and Certificate Rules, but I can't remember how they fit into the whitelisting process.

I remember studying about Signature Rules in AppLocker, but I can't recall if they were specifically for whitelisting.

I think AppLocker can use Path Rules to whitelist applications, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only method.
