Websense will be making changes to the master URL database on July the 17th
These changes will affect several categories present within the database
The current category (Web-based Email) is being separated into General Email (for sites that provide email services open for general use) and Organizational Email (for corporate and institutional email systems).
A new category Text and Media Messaging, will be added, this allows for management of sites that enable the sending of messages and other content via SMS, EMS, MMS, or similar protocols.
In addition, two existing subcategories are being renamed to better reflect the nature of the evolving web:
• Message Boards & Clubs is being renamed to Message Boards & Forums
• Personal Websites is being renamed to Social Networking & Personal Sites
Each renamed category inherits the policy actions you defined for the category before the rename.
It is very important that your filtering policies are reviewed on July the 18th to ensure that appropriate action is applied to the new categories.
