Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>When a file is executed on an endpoint, the Application Control performs multiple checks to determine whether to allow or ban the execution. Only files with a reputation of "Most Likely Trusted", "Known Trusted" or "Might be Trusted" are considered to be allowed. By configuring the setting to only "Most Likely Trusted" or "Known Trusted", the files with a reputation of "Might be Trusted" are blocked. While this may impact operationally in the beginning, after the inventories are vetted by the administrators, files with a "Might be Trusted" value may be recategorized in that organization.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
