Which is the BEST deployment system for malicious code protection?
Application whitelisting (AWL) is considered the best deployment system for malicious code protection because it prevents unauthorized applications from running by only allowing pre-approved applications to execute. This approach is effective in reducing the risk of malware infections and other malicious activities, as only trusted software is permitted to run on the system.
A Defense-in-depth approach should use mixed deployment systems with some or all of the following tools: · Scanning at the control system firewall · Ingress/inbound and egress/outbound traffic · Application whitelisting (AWL) · Automatic updating for non-critical systems · Systems with vendor approved update schemes · Manual scheduled updates for more difficult systems IC32M page 395
