D. By using traffic signatures regardless of port or protocol

Application Control identifies applications through deep inspection of traffic signatures/patterns (using Check Point's AppWiki application library), rather than relying on fixed ports — this allows it to recognize applications even when they use non-standard ports or tunnel over other protocols (like many apps that run over port 443).
