URL Category Lookup

Hi Can carmack, 

There’s no option to look up URL categories built into Sophos Central as of now. If you'd like to see this feature in the future releases of Sophos Central, please submit a feature request - https://ideas.sophos.com/forums/428821-sophos-central.

Secondly, could you please share more information regarding the issue you're facing with website management tags?

Thanks Yashraj S

Pleae add category look-up for ensuring the security especially for national web sites rather than english spoken countries.

For the issue, this is only way for web sitea management setting in endpoint protection ;

In this page would like to know what the category Category Override is and is this setting covers all the domain with its sub and paths?

Hi Can carmack,

This means that the websites added in the "blocksocial" tag are using the Sophos' default website categorization. You have the option to set a different category for a website for all the users if you think Sophos hasn’t categorized it correctly. So for websites where you've selected a category in the "Category Override" dropdown of the website tag, you'll see the category listed (For e.g. - "allow" tag) while for the tags where you haven't selected any category in the override section, the message "Category Override Disabled" message will appear. (For e.g. - "blocksocial" tag)

However, we recommend that you send the website for reassessment if you think it has been categorized incorrectly. For more info, please see: https://docs.sophos.com/central/Customer/help/en-us/central/Customer/tasks/ep_ConfigureWebsiteList.html

Thanks Yashraj for detailed information.

How about writing syntax for this domains to the list.

Is there any requirement for allowing an access for the domain with it's sub and paths ?
Is domainname and its top level name necessary to allow for example cdn.domainname.com ?

Happy to help! :)   
Once a website is allowed/blocked via website tags, all the subdomains would also be allowed/blocked.
