Configuring access to websites on iOS and iPadOS devices

You can configure the access of users of iOS and iPadOS devices to websites through Web Control for Safari.

Web Control for Safari allows you to control device user access to websites on the basis of lists of allowed and blocked websites. Web Control also allows you to add bookmarks of allowed websites on the bookmark panel in Safari.

Web Control settings are only applied to supervised devices.

To configure user access to websites on an iOS or iPadOS device in Safari:

1. Open Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud Management Console.
2. Select the Security management → Security profiles section.

   The Security profiles section contains a list of security profiles configured in Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud.

3. In the list, select the security profile for the devices on which you want to configure access to websites.
4. Click the link with the profile name to open the security profile properties window.

   The security profile properties window displays settings available for all devices.

5. In the iOS group, select the Management settings section.
6. Set the toggle switch to Web Control is enabled.
7. Click the Settings link below the Web Control is enabled toggle switch.

   The Web Control settings page opens.

   1. In the Operation mode section, select "Adult" websites forbidden.
   2. In the Allowed websites and Forbidden websites sections, click the Settings link to create the lists of allowed and blocked websites.

   The web address must begin with http:// or https://. Web Control applies the access rule to all websites in the domain.

9. To allow user access only to websites from the list of bookmarks:
   1. In the Operation mode section, select Only bookmarked websites are allowed.
   2. In the Bookmarks section, click the Settings link to create a list of allowed websites that will be added to the bookmark panel in Safari.

   The web address must begin with http:// or https://. Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud applies the access rule to all websites in the domain. Websites from the bookmark list will be added to the Safari bookmark panel.

10. Click the Save button.

When the security profile is applied, Web Control is enabled on the devices, which will restrict user access to websites in Safari according to the access rules that you configured.
