Business Internet Filtering – Part 1
by SysAdmin OzDisk on Jul.13, 2010, under General, ISA Server, Internet Filtering, Squid Proxy
Utilising Internet filtering within a business site can be great for controlling access and minimising risks.
Just make sure that this doe not impact on normal business activities.
Over blocking access can lead to interuption and loss of business activities, Under blocking can also lead to the same.
So what do we do, for starters I have listed below some categories or sites that should be blocked.
Minimal
Pornography
Advertisements
Malware/Spyware/Virus Hosts
Additional
Social Sites
Messenging Sites
Violence
Using opensource systems like IPCOP, SMOOTHWALL or similar can be very benficial.
Install the software onto a computer, configure and install the system into you network.
Tune and tweak the proxy and any additional module you may have installed.
If you have access to Microsoft ISA server and some decent computer hardware, Install and configure.
