Chapter 2: Establishing Filtering PoliciesYou can create a variety of policies, then apply different policies to differentusers to create custom filtering restrictions. You might create:The Default policyOne policy that blocks access to all but business-related sites duringworking hours, but allows access to sports, shopping, and entertainmentsites after normal business hours and on weekends.A second policy that allows access to all sites except those in the SecurityRisk and Legal Liability risk classes at all times.A third policy that provides unfiltered access to all Internet sites, 24 hoursa day, 7 days a week.The Default policy provides an immediate way to manage Internet accessthroughout your organization. The Default policy also acts as a safety net,applying filtering restrictions to users when no other policy has been assigned.You can edit the Default policy, but it cannot be deleted, and must apply 24hours a day, 7 days a week.Initially, the Default policy applies the Basic Security URL category filterand the Typical protocol filter at all times.You can edit the Default policy to enforce other URL category or protocolfilters, according to a schedule you establish. For more information, seeWorking with policies, page 39.Working with URL category filtersWebsense Express includes a variety of permanent URL category filters.These are marked with an asterisk (*) in Websense Manager to indicate thatthey cannot be edited or deleted.Always Block: Blocks access to all Internet and intranet sites.Basic: Blocks commonly-restricted categories, including Adult Material,Gambling, Illegal or Questionable, and the Security PG.Basic Security: Blocks sites classified as serious security risks, but doesnot block sites that may pose legal liability or productivity risks.Monitor Only: Permits all categories, and allows logging and reportingon all categories.26 Websense, Inc.
Chapter 2: Establishing Filtering PoliciesNever Block: Allows total, unrestricted access to all sites.Typical: Provides a more nuanced approach to filtering, blocking sites insome categories, allowing users to choose the Continue option for somecategories (see The Continue option, page 30), and blocking the rest.Any of these filters can be used as a template for creating custom URLcategory filters.Adding a URL category filterCreate as many URL category filters as you need to fine-tune filtering foryour organization. Add each filter to a policy to determine when it applies andwhich clients it governs.1. Right-click in the navigation tree, and then select Add URL CategoryFilter. The Add URL Category Filter dialog box appears.2. Enter a unique name for the new URL category filter, and then click OK.Websense Express User Guide 27
