reliability of app control without inspection

Hi

 

In your opinion, how reliable is application control (as in using it in policies to limit only those applications) when not ssl inspecting the traffic ?

Close to zero as today 99% of applications work over SSL. If you disable SSL Deep inspection AppControl will not be able to detect the apps inside SSL-ed traffic.
