Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for notifying users within a protected network about various events and information. According to one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a filtering device, a request originated by an application running on a client device. The method further includes making a determination, by the filtering device, whether the request is to be blocked or allowed, based on the one or more policies. If the request is to be blocked, a notification is provided to a user of the client device regarding the determination by causing the application to display a predefined message.
