I think you meant the letter A. I quote literally from the link you posted: "Productivity implications: Some applications, such as social media apps, have a positive or negative impact on employee productivity. An organization may wish to filter certain types of traffic on their networks for this reason." The correct answer should be "A"

Agreed with A, as other mentioned I don't see how application control would provide privacy. As you can look in the application traffic logs and see the applications User's are using, the traffic is transparent to see, no privacy is applied.

Selected Answer: A
A should be the correct answer, as application control does exactly that; filters out specific traffic. "The Application Control Software Blade provides application security and identity control to organizations of all sizes. It enables IT teams to easily create granular policies, based on users or groups, to identify, block or limit usage of web applications, network protocols and and other non-standard applications." https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solutionid=sk112249 Yes it does ensure security, however, it does not ensure privacy, as with app control you filter out traffic based off of app signatures, which would also identify what the end user is using of apps, also web apps. Thus it doesn't ensure privacy. - copied from truserud
