Mobile hotspot block

Hello Kaeyana,

Thank you for reaching out to the community, see you can not control the allow/block action if the client connected to the Internet does not have Sophos Firewall as there gateway. So in this scenario, the best thing would be to have an endpoint that control the network traffic, so that even if someone uses mobile hotspot they may not be able to access the sites blocked in your organization !!

Thank you for your answer but sophos firewall is the gateway for all the traffic in my network but i sure can try using sophos endpoint

If firewall is the gateway then you can control the client machine's access to the web with the help of web & application policy
