Service definition
What ZT Antivirus WhiteCloud does.
Zero-trust application control uses a default-deny trust model to decide which applications, libraries, and scripts may execute, adding a stricter control layer for unknown or unauthorized software.
- Organizations that need stronger control over which software may run
- Teams protecting stable or high-consequence Windows and Linux environments
- Businesses adding allowlisting and execution evidence to layered endpoint protection
- Unknown, unauthorized, or untrusted executables and scripts
- Malware that does not yet match a known signature
- Inconsistent application-approval policy across endpoints
- Limited evidence showing which software was allowed or blocked
Product details
Evaluate the capabilities that matter in your environment.
WhiteCloud uses default-deny application control: software needs an approved trust decision before it can run.
Applications, libraries, and scripts are verified against centrally managed trust policies before execution.
File identification combines five hashes and file length to resist attempts to impersonate trusted software.
Managed from day one
One continuous operating motion.
Deployment is the beginning of the service, not the end of the project.
- 01Assess the environment
Review the sites, users, systems, traffic flows, obligations, current controls, and operating constraints that shape the service.
- 02Design the coverage
Define in-scope assets, policies, integrations, retention, escalation paths, responsibilities, and success measures before deployment.
- 03Deploy and tune
Connect or install the service, validate traffic and telemetry, test policy behavior, resolve exceptions, and document the operational handoff.
- 04Monitor and respond
Operate, update, tune, review, and escalate the subscribed controls according to the agreed monitoring and support scope.
- 05Report and improve
Review activity, evidence, exceptions, service trends, and recommended next priorities with ownership made clear.
Choose the right layer
How this service differs from adjacent coverage.
These services work together, but they solve different operational problems.
Compared with NBX Managed Detection & Response
Zero-trust application control restricts what can execute. NBX detects, investigates, and helps respond to suspicious behavior using broader endpoint and cross-environment context.
Compared with Unified Threat Management
UTM+ inspects and controls network traffic at the gateway. WhiteCloud applies trust policy to software execution on covered endpoints.

Buyer’s guide
Commercial scope and compliance context.
Evaluate the complete operating commitment, not only a license or feature list.
A defined managed scope
Scope generally reflects covered endpoints and operating systems, policy and trust-list complexity, deployment mode, administration, logging, and support. The proposal should distinguish included licensing and managed operations from optional remediation or integration work.
Compare the full operating cost →Technical support, not a compliance guarantee
No single product establishes compliance. These guides show where the service can support controls, operations, and evidence.
