Sex /HOT/Porn Video through Facebook or Twitter

Hi;

 

In my network enviorment Facebook & twitter is allowwed use in office & because they are doing so many marketing relate things in that. So it has been allowed.

 

Mean time some people using this facebook/twitter to watch porn/Sex/hot video in office; how can i block this only?

I cant block compltely facebook & twitter i need to block only these kind porn/Sex/hot  - content only ? Is that any way is there in Sophos ?

  • The Challenge here is, to different between the content. 

    Most of those videos are hosted on the same platform. I do not know, how XG should be able to different between those sources. 

    It is the same issue like youtube. You highly relay to the platform to have "clean content". 

    From my point if view, this is not possible. Maybe somebody else can solve this? 

  • Can we raise the Ticket with spohos support ?

     

    Anything can done from their end?

    Atleast in the next newer version...

  • Please post your firewall rules in detail and some of your web and application policies.

    You can reduce some of the access, but not the embedded stuff.

  • Unfortunately there is not much that XG can do.  We could perhaps create rules that block all facebook videos.

    It would be better to report the video to facebook.

     

    But...  you have a bigger problem that requires a management solution, not a technological one.  You have a corporate policy not to watch porn in the office.  You have people who are breaking the policy.  They need to be brought to the manager, given a warning, and on repeat offence fired.

    This would be true if they watched porn over the XG, watched porn on their own phone, or was just caught masturbating in the washrooms with no internet.  The problem is they are engaging in activity that is against the company rules and needs to be dealt with as such.  If XG had prefect blocking of the videos, those people would still probably engage in the same bad behavior using a different mechanism.
