How to Bypass the Websense Filtering
A security solution delivered by Websense, Inc, Websense filtering allows administrators managing a network to filter any web pages that could potentially harm a network's speed or efficiency, as well as pages that display or feature inappropriate content. However, when Websense filtering is set in a network, pages that pose no harm may also become filtered; therefore, a viable way to approach this situation is to use proxy sites to bypass any restrictions emanating from the Websense filtering settings.
