I have installed Sophos Home 3.2.0. Web Filtering Advanced Settings nowhere to be found. Would like to block search engine results and SSL inspection

Hi,

I have Sophos Home installed but can't find many of the things mentioned online.


I want full control over Web Filtering to block search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo and to also provide search result filtering. Most important need SSL inspection enabled. Absolutely pointless to have filtering enabled if it only take to type https instead and then gaining access to blocked sites and content. It is also should block images and videos coming from search results.

I would appreaciate a solution to this.

Thanks in advance.

Mike

  • Hi Mike,

    like  has already mentioned, Sophos Home is the next-gen anti-virus solution for private usage. Sophos has a dedicated support team that will reply any question about the product. Regarding your question: I think web control only allows you to block specific website categories but not a specific site. But I could be on an old level of knowledge, as the product gets updated really fast. 

    If you want to get into a more evolved endpoint protection, you have to buy the business solution, called Intercept X (Advanced). This solution is more expensive (and you have to pay per device), as it's meant to be delivered to companies but also has a lot of more features. With this you can also block specific sites and go much deeper into configuration of the endpoint protection. Get your hands on here: https://www.sophos.com/en-us/products/endpoint-antivirus.aspx
