Why does DNS Filter consider google translate a threat Proxy & Filter AvoidanceTranslation Sites
Why does DNS Filter consider google translate a threat Proxy & Filter Avoidance Translation Sites.
I guess sensitive information could leak out of the organization via the translation but is that the only reason, have there been compromises specific to google translate beyond the normal usage.

Hi Bill Barasch, thanks for reaching out! I see Casey got you some info already via your support ticket, but just to post a reply here as well in case other community members are curious:
Google Translate (and similar sites) are tagged under Translation Sites, Proxy & Filter Avoidance because they can sometimes be used to bypass DNSFilter’s security pipeline. It’s not that the tool is unsafe, just that it can act like a proxy.
If your team needs access, you can add the domains to your Allow List while still blocking the related Threat categories!
