Sophos Home allows you to control access to certain types of websites on every computer, based on the site's category. This article describes how to allow, warn, or block browsing websites based on their category. 
Note: The Block message will not appear when browsing https (secure) websites, however, users will see the site as unavailable. 
Warn messages will not work on https secure sites, only http. 

Instructions

2. Click the name of the device you would like to configure.
3. Go to WEB FILTERING tab.
