What option in Jamf allows you to block applications from running on Mac OS?

The correct option is Restricted Software. This feature in Jamf allows administrators to define specific applications that should not be allowed to run on managed Mac OS devices. By creating a list of restricted software, organizations can effectively block the execution of applications that may pose security risks, violate licensing agreements, or simply do not align with organizational policies.

Restricted Software works by monitoring the applications on the Mac devices and enforcing rules to prevent the usage of any applications included in the restricted list. When an end user tries to launch one of these applications, Jamf can provide a notification alerting the user that the application is blocked, ensuring compliance and maintaining security across the network.

On the other hand, Application Control focuses on managing and monitoring applications without the specific intent of blocking them. Firewall Settings pertain more to network traffic regulation and aren't directly related to application management on the user’s device. Device Management encompasses a broader set of capabilities, including configuration profiles and settings, but does not specifically highlight the blocking of applications like the Restricted Software feature does.
