Separate AppAware File Sharing Category into Business and Non-Business Uses
Brian Zick
It would be helpful to have to categories here, one for commonly used business sites like Box, Dropbox, ShareFile, etc. and one for less common or more personal use sites like BitTorrent Client, Mega, NZB.su, TPB, etc.

Block same email providers (personal vs corporate)
Mayur
Only corporate email accounts should be able to access emails. Personal email accounts should be blocked for the same provider. This functionality doesn't exist and is a gap for compliance.

Come on guys - Zorus even has that feature built-in.

Richard Delaney: Appreciate the feedback. I'm wondering if this might be a future use case as we develop URL Filtering - https://dnsfilter.canny.io/feature-requests/p/transparent-url-filtering. I'll bring it to the team for discussion.

DNS is not the right tool for the job. You would need a proxy server between your users and the internet. Then write a custom rule to block files by extension. I don't recommend doing that. It would break the internet. Browers need to download files so they can be rendered to the user.
If you are using a windows domain server. Take a look at GP to limit your users. blocking file downloads in Edge using Group Policy is possible.
