URL Filtering profiles let you monitor and control how users access the web over HTTP and HTTPS by defining how your configuration handles traffic to specific URL categories. A URL Filtering profile is a collection of URL filtering controls that you can apply to individual Security rules that allow access to the internet. You can set site access for URL categories, allow or disallow user credential submissions, enable safe search enforcement, and various other settings. To enforce the actions you define in a URL Filtering profile, you need to apply profiles to Security rules. A default profile is configured to block websites such as known malware sites, phishing sites, and adult content sites. You can use the default profile in a Security policy, clone it to be used as a starting point for new URL filtering profiles, or add a new URL profile that will have all categories set to allow for visibility into the traffic on your network. You can then customize the newly added URL profiles and add lists of specific websites that should always be blocked or allowed, which provides more granular control over URL categories.
