Website Category Reference


  • Click 'Configure' > 'Policy' > 'Domain Classification Requests' > 'Request Category Change' > 'Propose a new category' to open this list.


Secure Internet Gateway classifies every domain into a website category, and the categories are arranged in top-level groups. The same taxonomy is offered by the 'Propose a new category' selector here and by the 'Select Category' picker used to build a category rule.

Use this reference to find the group a category belongs to before you propose a change or build a rule.

Note: the 'Select Category' picker used when building a category rule presents the same taxonomy with 19 groups and 98 entries, so it carries slightly more than the selector on this screen. Confirm against the screen you are documenting.

See 'Request a Category Change' to propose a different category for a domain, and 'Create a Category Rule - Settings' to block or allow whole categories.
