I observe in the traffic logs the firewall is not detecting the tiktok application traffic even i applied SSL forward decryption also the firewall is detecting application as a SSL and web browsing.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>For this I block the tiktok application but still users are able to access tiktok.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Is there any way to block this?</P> </BLOCKQUOTE> <P><a href="https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/231234">@emolina007</a>'s response:</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <BLOCKQUOTE> <P>I added a custom category rule "name_blocked_URLs" added *.tiktok.com/. Under my filter I have it set to block. With so many apps now days using different app resources I didn't do application because there could be other apps using it as a dependency. It really all depends on what apps are doing. Hope this helps.&nbsp;</P> </BLOCKQUOTE> <P>&nbsp;</P> Fri, 28 Apr 2023 12:06:47 GMT JayGolf 2023-04-28T12:06:47Z https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/general-articles/nominated-discussion-how-to-block-the-tiktok-application/ta-p/537927 <P><SPAN>This Nominated Discussion Article is based on the post "</SPAN><A href="https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/general-topics/block-the-tiktok-application/m-p/389942" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Block the Tiktok Application</A><SPAN>".</SPAN></P> Fri, 28 Apr 2023 12:06:47 GMT https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/general-articles/nominated-discussion-how-to-block-the-tiktok-application/ta-p/537927 JayGolf 2023-04-28T12:06:47Z
