Is there a list of known proxy servers (IP addresses) to bypass a firewall's access rules?
-
I am trying to use a SonicWall TZ170 with Content Filtering Service to prevent access to certain categories of websites, but I have noticed people accessing proxy websites (example: superproxy.de) directly by typing the IP addresses which the firewall does somehow not block automatically.

Answer:
You'll likely have to close the ports on your firewall that these proxies use.

Most firewalls make it easy to exclude specific IP addys and ranges. You just want to make a rule that closes all outbound traffic to those destinations. Dont just close 80 or they'll go out another port.

I'm a professional security consultant and have been working with firewalls and business security for many years. I'm not a fan of Sonicwalls (Astaro is my preference), but nevertheless the problem you're facing is one that many businesses face every day -- how to deal with users that try to circumvent firewall rules. The usual reaction is to try to find a technical solution -- and that may work for a little while until the users find some other way around the new fix. I think you need to take 3 steps back and realize that you're dealing with more of a HUMAN problem than a TECHNICAL one. What you need is a company-wide security policy -- something solidly backed by management -- that lets employees know the rules of the road and spells out that Internet abuse will not be tolerated and may result in getting fired. Employees should sign an Internet usage agreement, and know that their Internet usage is subject to monitoring. Hope this is helpful to you.
