Administrator Help | TRITON AP-WEB and Web Filter & Security | Version 8.1.x
Search filtering is a feature offered by some search engines that helps to limit the number of inappropriate search results displayed to users.
Ordinarily, Internet search engine results may include thumbnail images associated with sites matching the search criteria. If those thumbnails are associated with blocked sites, your Websense software prevents users from accessing the full site, but does not prevent the search engine from displaying the image.
When you enable search filtering, search engine feature stops thumbnail images associated with blocked sites from being displayed in search results.
Websense, Inc., maintains a database of search engines with search filtering capabilities. When a search engine is added to or removed from the database, an alert is generated (see
Alerting
).
Search filtering is activated via the
Web > Settings > General > Filtering
page in the TRITON Manager. See
Configuring filtering settings
for more information.
