Purevpn not blocked by Appfilter

Abertay

Purevpn seems to be sneaking past the appfilter block at the moment.
Its connecting to *.ptoserver.com and *.pointtoserver.com

Hi @Abertay
These types of services almost always masquerade as HTTPS/TLS traffic -- APP control will attempt to work without content inspection on, but it works best when content inspection is on.

Any/All of the tips here can come in handy with helping stop these types of apps.
