Hello,
Right now we are using Safe search enforcement for staff and students. We allow YouTube for both groups but require Safety Mode to be enabled. However, we have been running into a lot of issues with YouTube flagging videos as inappropriate even when they aren't, meaning a lot of videos won't work in Safety Mode. What I would like to do then is allow staff to access YouTube without requiring Safety Mode being enabled. I understand that YouTube is included in Safe search enforcement via URL Filtering Profiles. Is there an easy way around this? Thanks for any help.

Hi
safe search can be enforced through the advanced options of a url filtering profile that's set in a security profile. if you want to be able to distinguish between faculty and students you could leverage UserID to positively identify faculty members and apply a different url filtering profile that does not have safe search enforcement enabled.
This could also be achieved by setting different source IPs but that could potentially leave the door open for students to find out there are privileged IP addresses (vs. UserID)
