Enterprises need to be able to prevent unauthorized software from executing, whether it's malware, spyware, or something the user has no business loading onto a company PC. Bit9 gives the enterprise full control over what to allow and disallow in a very flexible way.

Enterprise desktops are rife with malware, spyware, and other unwanted software. These threats are extremely difficult for IT managers to centrally manage and control. Unfortunately, addressing security issues at the endpoint is extremely time-consuming. Bit9 Parity provides the capabilities and speed that would typically require a small army of IT experts to lock down, and further, without prejudgment, makes resources available to remove any unwanted software off at the earliest possible time.

There are many files on enterprise and consumer desktops that are not immediately recognizable, and this makes it difficult to separate the good from the bad. Bit9 provides real-time visibility and trusted source information about what is actually executing on computers -- information that would please any security-conscious user.
