Git App with File Upload
In evaluation and production installations, proactive introduction of executables into Privilege Manager can be accomplished with a feature called File Upload. File Upload allows you to quickly introduce a file, then create a Filter and/or a Policy to govern the application. As example, here's how to introduce the Git Installer into Privilege Manager and use the file information to allow list Git applications.
For this use-case you will need to have access to downloaded Git installer files.
-
Using the Policy Wizard, create a controlling policy that allows application execution on endpoints.
-
Select what process types you want the policy to allow, for this example it's Specific Applications.
-
Choose your target, for this example File Upload.
-
Click Choose File and select a file to upload.
-
Click Upload File.
-
On the Manage Application page select all the identifying factors you want the filter to target.
-
Click Create Filter.
-
Click Next Step.

Name your policy and add a description, click Create Policy.
