Curbing Distractions

Block distracting websites and prevent time theft with We360.ai domain blocking for employee monitoring and productivity tracking.

We360.ai's domain blocking feature allows administrators to actively prevent access to distracting or policy-violating websites at the endpoint level — enforced by the desktop agent itself.

Domain blocking requires the We360.ai desktop agent to be running. It does not function as a network-level firewall and applies only on machines where the agent is installed.

Setup Steps

1

Access URL Blocking

Go to Settings → Compliance & Security → URL Blocking. This panel allows you to create a blacklist of domains.

2

Add Domains to Block

Enter the domain(s) you want to restrict (e.g., facebook.com, youtube.com, reddit.com). Subdomains are automatically included. You can add as many as needed.

3

Assign to Teams (Optional)

By default, blocking rules apply organization-wide. You can scope them to specific teams — for example, blocking social media only for the support or engineering teams, while allowing it for marketing.

What happens when a blocked domain is accessed?

When an employee attempts to navigate to a blocked domain, the agent intercepts the request at the browser level and the page fails to load. The access attempt is also logged in the Alerts dashboard, with a timestamp and employee name.
