Hello there,
I want to have this issue discussed:
Some of our students access this page today: My Lazy Sundays!
So I blacklisted it in the according web filter profile.
But I was curious - Is it just to new to be categorized as "****ography" or not?
So I wen to: https://www.trustedsource.org/?p=mcafee
Chose "McAfee SmartFilter XL" and looked up nobrain.dk
Result:
Categorization in URL Filter database version '30503'
URL Status Categorization Reputation
My Lazy Sundays! Categorized URL - Malicious Sites
- ****ography
- Malicious Downloads
High Risk
But I wanted to know whether OUR web filter database is just not that up to date.
I don't know how to test an URL on the Astaro directly (to emulate a student without a PC) so I searched the Internet and found:
https://www.astaro.com/index.php/tool/urlreport
I entered the URL again and it says:
For Astaro Security Gateway V7:
The URL 'nobrain.dk' did not return any category matches.
We are using Astaro V.8.201
So either I got the wrong testing site or a not updated filter database.
HOW can I ENSURE that...
... my web filter database is up to date?
... that the URL that I test shows the correct result of OUR Astaro being used?
Where can I test an URL anyway?
THANK YOU in advance!
--Uwe
