How do I block Youtube without using Video Hosting Category

Hello there,

Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community.

Adding to what Rfcat mentioned, you can also take a look at the following KBs, that should help you to block only youtube.

Sophos Firewall: Block YouTube with a Web Policy

Sophos Firewall: Block YouTube with Application Control

Regards,

Thanks Emmanuel.

I was intending to use an existing rule by adding Web and Application Activity Level blocks. 

As you (and Iian) suggested, I have created 2 new Firewall Rules with specific Web and Application Policies. That worked. I trust that I will be able to add (i mean club) any other streaming sites into this rule to block them from the same rule rather than creating too many rules. 

Thanks again.
