Restrict Google Apps to Allowed Domains
You can use the HTTPS proxy (with content inspection enabled) to block user access to personal Google services. You can specify which domains are allowed to use Google services. For example, you can allow domains used for Google for Work services, but block user connections to Google Gmail or other personal Google service accounts. Because most Google services are SSL encrypted, you must enable content inspection in the HTTPS proxy.
When you enable this feature, the web proxy server on the Firebox inserts an X-GoogApps-Allowed-Domains HTTP header, followed by a comma-separated allowed domain name list, into all requests for *.google.com.
Google services that do not require authentication, such as Google Search or YouTube, cannot be blocked.
To configure allowed domains for Google Apps access:
- Enable content inspection in an HTTPS proxy action.
- Select the Restrict Google Apps to Allowed Domains check box.

- Save the configuration.
