Facebook and SSL Decryption

Not applicable

Hi Everyone,

I am in the process of evaluating PA.  Love the product so far.  I have a question.  I am working on the App Control.  On the Facebook App I can block/drop the entire page but can't stop the subcategories (chat, posting, etc..).  I found out what I suspect to be the reason in that when I go to facebook it changes to an SSL page therefore app control cannot read the content.  What are some recommendations to fixing this problem?

so you configured SSL decryption or not ?

if you need to allow facebook but block facebook-chat you have to decrypt that traffic.
