Cisco WSA https inspection capability?

Hello, 

does a Cisco WSA has the capability of inspecting HTTPs traffic like Internet-Proxy servers do

[Ken Stieers]

yes.

Here's a doc on how to set up the WSA, it has a section on doing HTTPS:

Thanks for the info.

this means using WSA we can block/filter video traffic inside of https ? like blocking video inside Facebook ?

Yep, If it's in AVC, with the https proxy, you can keep various parts of apps from working.
