APPENDIX L

APPROVED SOFTWARE LIST – WINDOWS

This list is not all-encompassing and does not restrict the installation or use of custom software or software not explicitly listed here. Most commonly available and legitimate software will be allowed, as our primary goal is to ensure that known bad or malicious software does not compromise the security and integrity of your environment.

If you rely on software that is not included on this list or if you have custom-built applications designed specifically for your business, please let us know. We want to ensure that we are fully supporting your business needs by providing the necessary tools to keep your operations running efficiently and securely.

Our approach is to collaborate with you to maintain a secure and productive environment while enabling flexibility for your unique requirements.
