| Description |
This article describes the limitations of tenant restrictions enforced on custom applications under inline-casb. |
| Scope |
FortiGate v 7.6.3 or above.
Tenant restriction enforced on custom application via inline-casb security profile.
Consider the scenario where it is required to restrict the use of personal email login attempts on a particular site(s), but only allow corporate emails.
For illustration, only permit the '@fortinet.com' domain on https://github.com/login; prevent login to the other domains on the same site.
Regardless of the above configuration, end users will still be able to log in to github.com using their personal account, which is not expected.

Solution |
At the time this article was written, inline CASB custom-app tenant filtration is limited to sites using the application/json format as their content type.
Since github.com/login is of application/x-www-form-urlencoded format, tenant checks are bypassed. This can be verified under inline-casb security event & WAD debug log
