A big question would be... why do you want to restrict binaries from users?
Thats the sysadmin decision. He considers it a security measure and I can understand it somewhat.
Does he? Because he's not restricting them in any way, and totally okay with all the portable apps delivered in the web browser, right? So he's totally okay with them. Just confused, I'd guess.
Well, I can't presume to know his mind but hes just trying to limit the damage that can be done i suppose. I am guessing that is what he is thinking.
Is this from a government requirement? The only way to do this is checksum all of your executables. Unless you are required to do this, you're insane.
Yes we are a 2 year college and this is what I am told.
That's a lot to deal with for a 2 year college. I can understand the annoyances of accreditation and also following like FERPA requirements.
