Google Safe Search Broken

HI All
Just wondering out loud
With the changes to Google
1.       Google has changed all Searches to “https”
2.       Google  redirects now to httpS://www.google.com
3.       Schools use edge Content filtering  – This searches http search requests.
4.       Children now have full access to look at “bad” images at Google. (Browser sets up SSL session)
5.       The Google advice is to redirect google.com to Google
6.       So no real filtering.

Has anybody done any real testing?
How is Sophos UTM going to handle this change?

  • you have to enable https inspection in the web proxy and then safesearch should work just fine as the web proxy can enforce it once the MITM is setup on the network via the utm's certificate.
