Description
This article describes how to troubleshoot safe search feature which is not working in Chrome browser but works in other browser like Firefox.
Solution
To use safe search, it is necessary to enable SSL deep-inspection on the respective firewall policy.
However, it is possible to notice intermittently that the safe search is not enforced in Google Chrome, but it works in other browsers like Mozilla Firefox.
1) Check if there are any application control profile configured on the firewall policy along with web filtering profile where safe search is enabled.
2) If there are no application control profiles configured, configure an application control profile (default profile is also fine) and block QUIC application in the application control profile and use that profile in the firewall policy.
3) Once QUIC application is blocked in the application control profile and applied the same in the firewall policy, it is possible to enforce safe search completely with the help of SSL deep-inspection in the Chrome browser.
Note.
Using the deep-inspection profile can cause certificate errors.
