Web Filtering Specific Group of Users

G Georgiou

Hi, firth time here, hope you can help...

I've a UTM 9 650, all working well and relatively new to us, about 6 weeks old.

We have several retail stores and offices that all go via this appliance. I'm currently using the Web Filtering facility to restrict web sites for these locations, all good so far.

However, I've got certain groups of people who work remotely (via VPN) or in the various stores that more open access to the internet.

So I thought, let's create a separate web filtering policy just for those individuals and apply that policy to their AD credentials. But it seems that's possible, is that correct or am I missing something?

Hope someone can help or advise of how this can be done.

Thanks,

G

    Working with web filtering profiles is not an easy job.

    First you need to create a profile with proxy in authentication mode before you can use accounts or groups.

    No authentication - no individual filter action.

    Then you need to define a filter action to use it in an new policy.

    Test it with the "Policy Helpdesk" function.

    There are some tips in the Sophos KB:
