I'm having a tough time understanding Umbrella's decryption capabilities. Since Umbrella is just analyzing the DNS Request, how is it able to utilize file policy when Decryption is enabled? Furthermore, my edge firewall is already providing SSL Decryption for internet capabilities. Do I need to worry about using decryption both on the endpoint and the perimeter?

Just DNS. Majority of traffic through secure client.

Advantage - has intelligent proxy capability which proxies requests to those "grey" sites that we call (e.g. reddit).
So if you are using Essentials, then you will definitely not going to see any web traffic from your activity logs.
Why use Umbrella if you already have a firewall in the HQ? Few reasons:

I'm still finding this confusing. So with DNS Security, intelligent proxy doesn't do anything? But with advantage intelligent proxy will send the actual https traffic to the proxy or will it just send the dns requeste to the proxy?
