Blocking network connections from Windows 7 PCs

My organization has two Cisco FTD 1140s managed by an FMC. Both are running version 7.0.4. Is there anyway possible to block Windows 7 PCs that are connected to my inside interface from connecting to the internet?

YES / NO

YES if you know the User has fixed IP and user login to network any user identity

NO  - if you do know the PC IP address and user coming from known user ID ?

or you looking if the Operating system is Windows 7 ? you would like to block it?

With only the FTD you  will not be able to block devices based on operating system information.  You would need to implement an identity access management system, like ISE, to be able to do this.

You can, however, integrate the FTD with Active Directory or LDAP and deny access based on user info. So if you know a specific user has a windows 7 machine, you could deny that person reaching the internet.  But in this case you would also be denying this person access to internet from all machines they log onto with that username.
