Configure Application Control for a policy

Configure the Application Control module to define its behavior for a policy. Generally, use the following steps to configure the module:

Create an ApplicationControlPolicyExtension object and add the Ruleset IDs to use. Also configure the running state (on or off).
Create a PolicySettings object to configure runtime settings of the module.
Create a Policy object and add the ApplicationControlPolicyExtension and PolicySettings objects.
Use a PoliciesApi object to add or update the policy on Deep Security Manager.

For more information about Deep Security application control, see Deep Security Help Center.

The following example creates an ApplicationControlPolicyExtension object and turns on application control. The object is added to a Policy object, which is used to modify a policy on Deep Security Manager.

Python

source

# Get the policy
policies_api = api.PoliciesApi(api.ApiClient(configuration))

# Turn on Application Control
application_control_policy_extension = api.ApplicationControlPolicyExtension()
application_control_policy_extension.state = "on"

# Update the policy
update_policy = api.Policy()
update_policy.application_control = application_control_policy_extension

# Modify the policy on Deep Security Manager
app_control_policy = policies_api.modify_policy(policy_id, update_policy, api_version, overrides=False)
return app_control_policy

JavaScript

source

// Turn on application control
appControlPolicyExtension.state =
  api.ApplicationControlPolicyExtension.StateEnum.on;

// Add to the policy
policy.applicationControl = appControlPolicyExtension;

// Send the change to Deep Security Manager
policiesApi.modifyPolicy(policyID, policy, apiVersion, { overrides: false })
  .then(data => {
    resolve(data);
  })
  .catch(function (error) {
    reject(error);
  });

Java

source

// Turn on ApplicationControl
ApplicationControlPolicyExtension appControlPolicyExtension = new ApplicationControlPolicyExtension();
appControlPolicyExtension.setState(ApplicationControlPolicyExtension.StateEnum.ON);

// Configure a policy and update on Deep Security Manager
Policy updatePolicy = new Policy();
updatePolicy.setApplicationControl(appControlPolicyExtension);
PoliciesApi policiesApi = new PoliciesApi();

updatePolicy = policiesApi.modifyPolicy(policyId, updatePolicy, Boolean.FALSE, apiVersion);
