To create a protected resource in the local interface:

  1. On the protected virtual machine, open the application settings window.
  2. In the left part of the window, in the Endpoint control section, select Application Privilege Control.

    In the right part of the window, the Application Privilege Control component's settings are displayed.

  3. Click the Resources button.

    The Applications window opens on the Protected resources tab.

  4. Complete steps 7–13 of the previous instructions.

    If the settings in the local interface are not available, this means that the values of settings defined by the policy are used for all protected virtual machines of the administration group.

  5. To save changes, click the Save button.

After you add a protected resource, you can edit or remove it by clicking the Edit or Delete buttons in the upper-left part of the Protected resources tab.
