Application Listing and Whitelisting via Azure or Intune or defender

Question

Dear All,

As part of a cyber security requirement, i need to achieve the following task, any Microsoft product can do so? and what are the steps

I have Intune and defender for end point license. I would like to achieve the following.

1. List down all software installed in all my users' PC. I know that i can go intune, individual devices to see the discovered app (Installed App) however, i want to have a overview of the installed app in ALL devices.
2. Due to software upgrade need, i didn't restrict the users from installing software. As such i wanted to do application white listing, where i approve certain software to be installed, while other software to be barred from Installation.

Thanks for your help

@Yong Chin Kuo Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

1.There is no method can make it via intune. Maybe a PowerShell script will list all installed applications on Intune managed devices.

2.Please consider AppLocker or App Control to make it in Windows. You can refer to the following article:

Hope it will give you some ideas.
