Description
Use the Inline Categorization tab to enable real-time web page analysis and manage URL exceptions.
Real-time URL analysis is available locally as a firewall-based detection mechanism and in the cloud as a part of the Advanced URL Filtering service.
  • Enable local inline categorization—Enables real-time analysis of URL traffic using firewall-based, machine learning models, to detect and prevent malicious phishing variants and JavaScript exploits from entering your network.
  • Enable cloud inline categorization—Enables real-time analysis of URLs by forwarding suspicious web page contents to the cloud for supplemental analysis, using machine learning based detectors that complement the analysis engines used by local inline ML.
Exceptions
You can define URL Exceptions for specific web sites that you do not want analyzed using inline categorization.
To add URL exceptions, you must first define a valid EDL (external dynamic list) or custom URL category. Click Add to view and select from the available options.
