      Sorry for late respone,

      i think yes the opera mini use VPN. In the security profile, I have added opera.vpn so this should be blocked. or maybe there is something I missed?

      If you Opera mini uses VPN I guess it will not be matched by Opera.Mini app signature.

      Probably it will be matched by Opera.VPN, you can try.

      Otherwise you can monitor your traffic from that host and see which application signature is matched for that.

      You should check out the policies that align with your blocking requirements.

      In my opinion, the policy I have created is appropriate, I assigned all app signatures related to Opera Mini to be blocked. Can you please try testing at your place when using a local network then browsing using Opera Mini and opening an 18+ site to see if it will be blocked or not?


      Thanks

      Hi,

       

      - Is the traffic matching same policy when you access using chrome browser and Opera mini browser?

      - Are you blocking the communication using the web filter or application filter? 

      - Are you using the deep inspection SSL profile in the Policy?

      - Have you tried to collect the capture for working and non-working case? If yes are there any differences especially in the SSL handshake if you are using the web filtering?

       

      Regards,

      Shiva
