    Is there truly a "whitelisting" capability in Privilege Manager?  Elevating every known application to run with administrative credentials is not really the answer.  As we all know, not all applications will function correctly if launching as "Administrator" accounts.  Blacklisting only allows you to block known applications from running, not the random unknowns.  If you have a technique for "whitelisting" in Privilege Manager, please share, as there is no formal documentation from Quest on this process.
