blocking facebook apps in smartphones (apple and android)

asgnewbie
Hi Experts,

My astaro 425 ver 8 able to blocked http/s://www.facebook.com via web browsing, however I noticed that there are some traffic shows facebook still accessible, till I found out that some employees brought their own smart phones just to browse facebook website.

How do I achieved using my astaro 425 to stop some employees browsing facebook using their smartphones?

TIA

    You can block facebook with 'Application Control'.

    I think your UTM will recognize this traffic even when the proxy isn´t used by the smartphones. But traffic must go through the UTM. [;)]


    Not sure if this works reliable without SSL/HTTPS proxy when fb traffic is https. In my memory it didn't. But it's worth a try, as I tested this last with 8.2 Beta ;o)

    I will check this on Monday with v8.308 and v9.004-34.
