TikTok Application Control

Hi Fabio,

Thank you for contacting Sophos Community. 

You may check this other post for blocking TikTok.

Create a custom category under the web > categories from below

> And then you may follow the block websites using custom categories: https://support.sophos.com/support/s/article/KB-000036901?language=en_US

That kinda works, but it relies on an external site data to build an domain list that i dont know if its reliable. And more than that, it's realy clumbersome to implement and not updated like the Application Control is.

There are many and many irrelevant apps in the Application control but super relevant apps to internet use nowdays are not present like TikTok.

There is a reason why you dont add TikTok to application control?

HI Fabio,

I have created a hosts and services group which provides some blocking snd have added the new group to the general block rule I have at the top of my rule list.

I have also created a web category which I have added to my web profile to block objectionable sites.

The configuration is a bit of an overkill because there are a number of block points but the site is blocked.
