Issue:
- Web Content control is blocking pages by claiming they have been rated, for example, as adult material, even though the web page has nothing to do with that rating. The category is wrong.
- How do I whitelist sites for WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection for Computer and Server?
- How do I whitelist sites for Client Security and Server Security?
- I want to access a site but Browsing Protection blocks it. What can I do?
Resolution:
You can report wrongly blocked pages and websites with incorrect categories to our labs. Check the box "I want to give more details about this sample and to be notified of the analysis results" and fill in the required information to get updates from labs as they check the link. Series 14 and later Business Suite products as well as Elements Endpoint Protection for Computer and Server will show webpage categories on the block page, which can give you more detail on why a page has been blocked.
To whitelist webpages in portal settings profiles:
- Log in to the Elements Endpoint Protection portal
- Go to Security configurations > Profiles using the left-side menu
- Open the profile you want to modify
- Click on Browsing Protection from the left-side menu
- Scroll down to Sites
- Add the site you want to whitelist to the Allowed sites-list
- Click Save and Publish in the bottom right
To whitelist webpages using the Business Suite Policy Manager:
- Log in to the Policy Manager Console
- Select the correct policy domain or host from the Domain tree on the left
- Go to the Settings tab
- Select Advanced view from the selector in the top right
- Navigate to F-Secure Browsing Protection > Settings > Reputation Based Protection > Trusted Sites in the settings tree
- Click the Add-button to the right of the sites list to add new entries
- Press Ctrl+D or the Distribute policies-button in the top left to distribute the new setting
Observe that you might have to empty your web browser cache for the changes to take effect. This applies to both set of instructions listed above and to when you receive a notification from the labs that they have updated a page rating.
