It only replicates (at the moment!) the “Hiding” functionality of FSLogix that can hide or reveal filesystem entries or Registry entries – there is no current equivalent to the infinitely-useful but little-known FSLogix Redirection Rules. I’m not sure how App Access Control operates under the hood but am assuming it probably uses a filter driver like FSLogix does, possibly the same one used for App Layering, although this is just idle speculation on my part. For customers already using UPM, it probably makes sense to roll this functionality into the core UPM product and not have to lean out onto FSLogix for this additional tooling. This probably explains why Citrix have now given us the same basic “App Masking” functionality in a new UPM feature called App Access Control. FSLogix App Masking is widely used to control access to sensitive applications, or even do “reverse layering” to skin different application sets from single golden images.Īpp Masking has long been the go-to technology when wanting to hide apps in this way, but in many environments, I also tend to see a push to try and simplify the technology stacks in use. FSLogix has long had some cool features, especially outside of the container aspect of the suite.
