Hi @snasheet,

 

As @Remo pointed out, URL Filtering license is not required for decryption but as per your comment:

 

"to make use of URL categories to allow or block traffic based on the URL categoy" - a URL Filtering license will be required for this. It is also highly recommended to purchase a URL filtering license if you are planning on doing decryption to make sure that you do not decrypt health/banking/medical categories etc as per the legislation in your country.

 

Thanks,

Luke.

Hi @snasheet

 

For SSL decryption, no license is required. This one and URL filtering are independent features.
