Hi, Johan, and welcome to the UTM Community!

In which mode is Web Filtering configured - Transparent? Do you have Active Directory and are you also an administrator for that?

Cheers - Bob

How large is the group you want to block? How large is the entire group? How many sites do you want to block?

Cheers - Bob

The following assumes that you are using AD-SSO in Web Filtering...

In AD, create a new Security Group "The Doghouse" and assign to it the users to be blocked. In the UTM, create a Backend Group named "Doghouse" based on the AD group "The Doghouse." In 'Web Filtering Profiles', clone the Filter Action in use by everyone else, configure the clone to block the 14 websites and save it as "Doghouse Rules." In the Profile in use by everyone else, create a new Policy at the top assigning "Doghouse Rules" to the "Doghouse" group and enable the Policy.

Cheers - Bob

PS I really do have a client that came up with similar names! [H]
