## Overview

Web content filtering policies are the foundation of internet access control in Global Secure Access. Without any configured policies, users have unrestricted access to all internet destinations, exposing the organization to malware, phishing sites, and inappropriate content. Create filtering policies to block dangerous website categories and establish baseline internet access controls.

## Remediation

- [Configure web content filtering policies](https://learn.microsoft.com/entra/global-secure-access/how-to-configure-web-content-filtering?wt.mc_id=zerotrustrecommendations_automation_content_cnl_csasci)

## Run it

The check runs as part of the whole assessment, with the ZeroTrustAssessment module installed:

```powershell
Install-Module ZeroTrustAssessment -Scope CurrentUser
Connect-Maester
Invoke-Maester -Pack ZTA -SkipBuiltIn
```

Leave out `-SkipBuiltIn` to run Maester's own checks in the same run.
