Streaming Media - Allow YouTube but Block Music and Radio Sites

[cpremo]

We need to allow investigators access to "YouTube" type sites to view videos and "Copy" them locally, but want to block streaming Music and Radio Stations.  We have an Access Policy set that allows a defined group access to Streaming Media and have set the following Object Blocking Settings.

Unfortunately, it doesn't stop users from listening to Audio sites.  How do you stop this from happening???

Hi,

I would recommend creating a Custom URL Category for 'YouTube' only. You then allow this Custom URL Category for the relevant access policy. For the same policy please make sure that you have the predefined 'Streaming Media' URL Category set to block. This way the users will only be able access the YouTube URL for media and not the other streaming media URLs.

Kind Regards
