An application whitelisting policy is a set of rules that specifies which applications are allowed to run on a system or a network. Application whitelisting is a security technique that can prevent unauthorized or malicious software from executing, and it is often used in VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) environments to provide end users with access to limited applications. A cloud administrator who is responsible for managing a VDI environment should make changes to the application whitelisting policy when a new application needs to be provided, as this would ensure that the new application is authorized and compatible with the VDI environment.
