Georgi Stoychev 0 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Hello, The last few days the subject for the new .zip, .mov, etc. domains is getting more and more noisier, and we would like to know if its possible to block those kinds of domains, especially .zip in ESET Protect. We tried to follow the instructions, which were given in this topic, but without success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,909 Posted May 22 Administrators Share Posted May 22 You can block a TLD by adding it to the list of blocked addresses in the Web access protection setup -> URL management as follows: bbdokken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgi Stoychev 0 Posted May 22 Author Share Posted May 22 Thank you! I guess it needed some time to apply on the client hosts. One more thing - is there a way to customize the message, which the user sees when the website is blocked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Solution Marcos 4,909 Posted May 22 Administrators Solution Share Posted May 22 You can customize it only for Web Control notifications: I've made a test and it appears that also Web Control can be used to block TLDs, just create a url-based blocking rule with the desired TLD as the url (without wildcards).

Georgi Stoychev 0 Posted May 23 Author Share Posted May 23 Thanks, the second method also worked, when we've added "zip" in the list of blocked websites in Web control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Command IT 7 Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 How would you handle something like this example? https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/archive/refs/tags/@v1.27.1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,909 Posted May 29 Administrators Share Posted May 29 8 hours ago, Command IT said: How would you handle something like this example? https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/archive/refs/tags/@v1.27.1.zip To block urls that end with ".zip", add "*/*.zip" to the list of blocked websites in the Web access protection setup -> URL address management. However, keep in mind that urls pointing to zip files may not necessarily end with ".zip". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Command IT 7 Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 The URL is not for a zip file, but for the site v1.27.1.zip as everything before the @ is classed as a username, so wondering how that could be handled? Will something like */@*.zip work? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thae 7 Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 I'm pretty sure this would be handled as a .zip TLD, so it would be blocked when you denied access to .zip TLDs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
