Hi, I have a question about content filtering ADULT
If I search on web adult content, firewall block link of site, but not block preview image/video on search engine
Is there a possibility to block Web Search Filtering?

In short, if one searches for a word **bleep** on google.com for example, the images appear
Is it possible to also block the preview?


Examble on Meraki the functionality is this
https://documentation.meraki.com/MX/Content_Filtering_and_Threat_Protection/Web_Search_Filtering_and_its_Effect_on_Google_Apps_and_Google_Search

 

thanks in advance

Fabrizio

Hello,

 

You may consider to check whether safe search feature will meet your requirements. Please find the details by following the link below (proxy inspection mode and deep inspection are required):

the item "Enforce 'Safe Search' on Google, Yahoo!, Bing, Yandex" is already enabled, but it doesn't seem to work
I created a domain GPO, but it only works for EDGE and CHROME, not for FIREFOX

Hello,

 

Could you please double check whether QUIC is blocked on firewall or browser side (firefox)?

Hi @Fumagalli,

I have tested with Edge and Firefox. The policy need to be on proxy with full-inspection to achieve this. However, 1 thing i notify is that Google search seem to bypass, tested with Bing and Duckduckgo. Can you please test on yours and let me know?

Regards,
Minh
