Psiphon application

[Jafar_Hussain]

Hello All,

I have configured to block streaming-media and online-storage-and-backup category by URL filtering profile.

Issue:- Users will connect to the Psiphon application and can access the blocking website.

I tried the below option:-

- Apply SSL forward proxy decryption with decryption profile to check block session with unsupported cipher suites.
- I have gone through the below KB and tried to block the Psiphon but couldn't

Try below steps :

1. Block unknow category in url filtering profile

2. Do not bypass any pre-defined url category in decryption bypass.

3. In decryption rule select service any.

After applying this steps  Psiphon is connecting only few seconds (20sec -30 sec) , and after that its disconnecting automatically.

@Jafar_Hussain,

Create a policy that includes consequences for accessing blocked resources, and then have management backing to enforce those consequences. That's the only way you're ever going to stop people finding new ways to bypass your efforts, and you'll never be able to fully prevent someone from doing so.
