Question:

How to block the Application which is not listed in App partol?

Answer:

Those apps might have been developed locally and are not available worldwide, so App Patrol does not include them.

You can try blocking them using custom URLs or FQDN objects in the content filter.

Note:

  1. You can ask the developer for the IP addresses or domains they use.
  2. Alternatively, you can use Wireshark to observe the IP addresses and domains being used.
  3. Since this method does not rely on signatures, it cannot guarantee 100% blocking success.
