Web Control controls user access to web resources. This allows you to reduce traffic consumption and reduce inappropriate use of working time. When a user attempts to open a website whose access is restricted by Web Control, Kaspersky Endpoint Security blocks access or displays a warning message telling the user that the website is undesirable.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security monitors only HTTP and HTTPS traffic.
Web Control allows you to configure access to websites in the following ways:
The application does not scan files inside archives. For example, if image files are archived, the application detects the data type as Archives rather than Image files.
You can use several methods to regulate access to websites at the same time. For example, you can restrict access to the "Office Application Files" data type only for the "Webmail" website category.
By default, the default rule selected for all web resources is Allow. In accordance with this rule, Web Control allows users to gain access to web resources if no other web resource access rules are defined.
You can change the default rule for Web Control, which governs how the application regulates access to web resources that are not covered by other rules, and set the default rule to Block. In accordance with this rule, Web Control prevents users from gaining access to web resources if no other web resource access rules are defined.
