A. By using signatures to determine applications from the traffic flow

Application Control identifies applications through deep packet inspection using unique application signatures (part of Check Point's AppWiki database) — analyzing patterns within the traffic itself rather than relying on port or protocol alone, which allows it to correctly identify applications regardless of what port/protocol they use.
