However, it's in an early state with demanding requirements for anyone willing to try it out.\n\nWhen enabled, Smart App Control uses AI and Microsoft's cloud knowledge base to check every app that runs, blocking anything unsigned, unfamiliar, or known to be malicious. There is no whitelist, so blocked apps will only get through if their developers sign them." image: https://commerce.rabalon.com/hubfs/2022-04-06-image-26-j.webp --- [Skip to content](https://commerce.rabalon.com/en/microsoft#main-content) [![Rabalon-logo2-400x100](https://commerce.rabalon.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rabalon-logo2-400x100.png?width=400&height=100&name=Rabalon-logo2-400x100.png)](https://rabalon.com/) - [About](https://rabalon.com/about/) - [Solutions](https://rabalon.com/solutions/) - [Partners](https://rabalon.com/partners/) - [Blog](https://blog.rabalon.com/en) - [Contact](https://rabalon.com/contact/) Open main navigation Close main navigation - [About](https://rabalon.com/about/) - [Solutions](https://rabalon.com/solutions/) - [Partners](https://rabalon.com/partners/) - [Blog](https://blog.rabalon.com/en) - [Contact](https://rabalon.com/contact/) Apr 7, 2022 11:04:36 AM # Microsoft [R.Babayeva](https://commerce.rabalon.com/en/author/r-babayeva) Share: [facebook-f icon](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://commerce.rabalon.com/en/microsoft) [Share this page on Linkedin](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://commerce.rabalon.com/en/microsoft) [Share this page on Emi](mailto:?body=https://commerce.rabalon.com/en/microsoft) # New Windows 11 security feature requires a clean install Microsoft recently unveiled a new security feature for Windows Insiders called Smart App Control.
