Dear all

 

i have a problem about application control of wechat video transfer , in a application control list , i can find the application signature as below 

 

Application Name Category Technology Popularity Risk WeChatCollaborationClient-Server  WeChat_Location.ShareCollaborationClient-Server  WeChat_Picture.TransferCollaborationClient-Server  WeChat_Video.TransferCollaborationClient-Server  WeChat_Voice.ChatCollaborationClient-Server  WeChat_Voip.CallCollaborationClient-Server  WeChat_WebCollaborationBrowser-Based  

 

and i only want to block wechat video.transfer , but Unfortunately , i don't why the video transfer will match WeChat application but not WeChat_video.Transfer , so i only can block whole wechat connection but this is not what i want , can another one help , thanks all .

    Hello Mike,

     

    I have analyzed the latest version of WeChat and found a slight protocol change. I have updated the signature to cover the new version. The signature package should be released tomorrow. Sorry for the inconveniences.
