How to Configure Web Filtering on the Fortigate Firewall

Are you ready to install a FortiGate Firewall in your business or need to reconfigure one? It’s good practice to revisit firewall rules once in a while and ensure they are up to date. Also, firewall web filtering rules need to be updated as business needs change. So, we'll discuss what kind of content you can filter in a FortiGate Firewall, why you want to enable web filtering in the FortiGate NextGen OS, and how to enable web filtering in FortiWall. There are various reasons businesses want to filter web content in the workplace. One of the biggest reasons is to get rid of inappropriate content. While it’s easy to point to porn, the truth is that we work in diverse workplaces. Some content may be offensive to some employees but not others. We want to cut down on that nuanced content. Of course, we need to block malicious content and control the amount of bandwidth used, too. IT techs need to keep machines running as best as possible, and preventing those machines from getting infected with malicious content is one strategy. We need to ensure that employees can communicate with outside web resources and that internet pipes aren’t clogged with YouTube videos and Spotify Music. The FortiGate Firewall has plenty of ways to filter web content, too. First, you can filter content by specific domain. Wildcard entries are valid in URL filtering, so an entire domain can be blocked. The NextGen Firewall OS also includes heuristic and AI-driven data to block content and application data. Content can be blocked by category as well. FortiGate categorizes most websites based on content, and entire content categories can be blocked despite its origination. Are you ready to learn more?
