Cato SDP Client to be auto intelligent to login instead of manual logging
I have recently migrated from Netskope to Cato Networks. One issue we have noticed is that users need to login once to Cato SDP client and then "Always-on policy" gets enabled. But users are smart, they don't login to SDP client itself as many sites gets blocked as per policy which they don't want so they don't login once also to SDP client thus making us non-compliant as absence of SDP client makes them vulnerable as they can browse malicious sites as well as can upload company data on public sites which typically gets blocked when connected over SDP client. In Netskope, we just had to push agents to the laptop and no user intervention was required, it automatically detects logged in user credentials so there was no scope for user to not login or bypass security controls. Can't we make zero touch experience for user so that there is no room for escape or delay as now we are totally dependent on user.
About arranging items in "App Analytics"
Hello team, "Applications" tab in Monitoring - App Analytics of CMA Regarding usage by application, when sorting by "Risk", could you tell us what the order of items with the same Risk score is based on? When sorting by the same Risk score, it seems that the order of items is not tied to application name, Upload/Download, or Users/Hosts. Regards, Naoto AdachiDifferences in routing time between Internet Recovery and WAN Recovery
Hello. This is the first post of the new Cato community. Recently, we verified how long it takes for Internet Recovery and WAN Recovery to switch communication paths. They found that Internet Recovery bypasses Internet communication after about 35 to 40 seconds and WAN Recovery transitions to an off-cloud tunnel in about 5 seconds. I understand the switch time is fast because WAN Recovery just switches to an already established Off-Cloud tunnel. Why does it take about 40 seconds for Internet Recovery to switch?New to Cato? Check out this introductory course!
Whether your organization just moved to Cato, or you're a new member in the team, start fresh with this short training on how to build a simple network using the Cato Cloud: Building your first network with Cato Feedback is welcome! and you're more than encouraged to discuss:)Split Tunnel basis FQDN/Domain
I am facing some issue wherein I am not able to browse some government site. There was an article on the same as well. As of now , I have configured split tunnel basis exclude IP and I have excluded IP address of one of the website of Government but this is not going to work as I have multiple websites of government which is not opening. Why there is no option to bypass or split tunnel basis FQDN or domain then I can exclude traffic for Government sites as it becomes a task for doing split tunnel basis individual IP address. Is it on road map as well or not?

Use Case: Block Youtube category but allow some specific youtube video ID(full path url)
Hi All, I am exploring the way to block all youtube but allow some specific youtube video id. The full path url is configured in Application Control policy with action allow and the youtube category is block in Internet Firewall policy. It is not working because application control only take effect with the traffic is allowed in Internet Firewall policy. FYI, full path url is not configureable in Internet Firewall policy. Appreciate if anyone from community can give some ideas. Thanks.What's new at Cato? 25th November 2024
