- Web Browsing Antivirus
- Web Access Control
NOTE: Squid technology is disabled by default on macOS computers.
Web browsing antivirus and phishing detection feature will not be enabled on macOS computers unless the URL filtering feature is enabled.
Known Issues
These are the most common issues that have been identified when the Web Browsing Antivirus and Web Access Control technologies are enabled:
- 15-second-long web browsing interruptions when changing networks.
Typically, when you switch a laptop connection between different WiFi networks. - Certificate errors after the Mac device returns from suspend mode.
In this case, the Mac Power Nap feature connects to download new mail, updates, etc. even during sleep or suspend mode. - Network interruptions with software VPNs.
- Issues when browsing internal network websites such as intranets.
Workaround
Although, for most cases, the proxy solution provides optimal interception capabilities, Panda is currently working on a new technology that intercepts traffic but prevents these issues. In the meantime, we recommend disabling these technologies, as the permanent protection of the product ensures that there is no security risk for the user when browsing the web. Any unwanted software downloaded through the web is immediately dealt with by the permanent protection.
