Filtering Contents
Access to web sites with inappropriate contents can be
blocked using filters. The following filtering options are avail-
able:
•
Prevent HTTP queries: You can prevent HTTPS queries.
HTTPS is used, for instance, to open Facebook, Gmail
and online banking.
•
Permit web sites with a whitelist:
–
You can create a list known as a “whitelist”, in which
you include all of the web sites a user is allowed to
access.
–
When a whitelist is used, only those web sites includ-
ed in the list can be opened, and no others.
–
Using a whitelist is convenient if access is to be limit-
ed to just a few web sites.
•
Block web sites with a blacklist:
–
You can create a list known as a "blacklist", in which
you include the web sites a user is not allowed to ac-
cess. This list can integrate the BPjM list of web sites
with adult content issued by the German federal gov-
ernment.
–
No web site included on the blacklist can be opened.
–
When a blacklist is used, web pages generally can no
longer be opened by entering the IP address directly.
This is also true for web sites that are not included in
the blacklist.
–
For applications that address web sites directly via
the IP address, for instance virus scanner update
software, the relevant IP addresses can be released
for access by entering them in the exception list.
Block network applications
You can list network applications to be blocked for use. For in-
stance, you can block file-sharing software.
