the educational sector—to block related categories.

Lock out users from workstations after "X" number of attempts are made to
access content that could endanger your network/organization. Enable and
configure the X Strikes Blocking feature, specifying categories that threaten your
organization. Enable the X Strikes Blocking filter option in applicable profiles. The
user receives a block page and is locked out of Internet/Intranet access after the
specified number of "strikes" are made to any of these categories.
To block categories in a profile using the X Strikes Blocking feature, go to:
• SYSTEM: System > X Strikes Blocking > Configuration tab, and Categories tab

Blocking enabled
or POLICY: Policy > Global Group > Global Group Profile > Filter Options tab (X
