Our SonicWall firewall is setup to block some countries through the Geo-IP Filter, I would like to block everything outside the United States and only allow access to the required vendors sites which are located in Europe and Asia. I've been told that blocking all countries in the Geo-IP Filter then specifying specific sites to allow access to doesn't work. Is their a way to accomplish this or do they have to continue allowing access to entire countries to access these vendor sites?<br />

We have a SonicWall NSA 3600 running Firmware version &quot;SonicOS Enhanced 6.2.5.1-26n&quot;, dated &quot;TUE MAR 15 15:48:25 2016&quot;

SonicWall

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.

Security

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.
