How to Block Skype Features?

Hi,
I am interested in using Skype for users in my organization but in a restricted mode. I only want to allow video calls and no feature other than this e.g. File Transfers, Chat, etc...
Kindly help.

Usman Khalid

Hi, Usman, and welcome to the Community,
I suggest a review of the information presented in these FAQ articles:
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10915/what-is-s​kype-business-version-and-how-is-it-different-from​...
One of our Community's technical gurus recently reviewed this Guide and assures me the information is still accurate despite references to a no-longer-supported version of Skype:

  • WSA s170 - How to block skype and download

    Hi,
    I recently changed my proxy solution from BlueCoat ProxySG to Cisco WSA but I'm finding some difficulties to operate the appliance. 
      a - I can't have multiple defaults route
      b - How can I block skype traffic?
      c - How can I block download
      d - No graphical interface for logging
    I hope some here can help me. Because I don't know yet if it was a good choice change the solution that used to work like a charm.
    If some one can also point the other good things I can do with this appliance should be good.
    Best regards,
    Alcides 

    It sounds like it may be best for you to reach out to the sales person that sold you this appliance.  But some quick answers for you:
    a) You can go to Network > Routes.  You can set routes based on destinations.  What exactly are you trying to do with multiple default routes?  Are you trying to get some kind of fail-over setup?  If so, this cannot be done.  You can contact TAC and ask that they submit a feature request for this.
    b) Skype can be blocked by the WSA, but after Skype determines that it cannot logon via port 80 or 443, it will start trying every port ever existed until it gets access.  Are you ready to block all other ports at the firewall?
    c) You can block a download by file types under Access Policies > Mime Type.
    d) There is web tracking.  But if you want to view live logs in the GUI, that is not available.  Consider contacting TAC and asking for a feature request as well.
    It sounds like you are very used to the Bluecoat.  Different products will have different features.

  • How to block all goods movements incurs to a warehouse?

    Hi all,
    I am wondering if you can provide me a way, a transaction code on how to perform the following?
    How to block all goods movements incurs to a warehouse.
    I am trying to execute LX23 (Stock comparison IM/WM) and try to remove the differences using batch input file.
    SAP document indicates the prerequisite to use this feature is that all inventory movements to the warehouse be blocked before clearing the differences (i.e. adapt the IM figure to that of WM figure).
    Appreciates.
    Daniel

    I think the requirement here is to block inventory movement (GR, GI, PCN etc.) to storage locations which are connected to your warehouse. Blocking movement on storage types in your warehouse does not serve this purpose.
    Is it really necessary to block inventory movement when running LX2? LX23 eventually will need to correct the stock via IM posting at the end.
    Anyway, if storage location level authorisation check is not currently in use in your system (OLMB -> Authorisation Management -> Authorisation check on storage location), you may try to activate authorisation check on storage locations connected to your warehouse so that those who has no M_MSEG_LGO assigned won't be able to post inventory movement to the warehouse.

  • How to block popup windows that opens up on clicking a link?

    Hi,
    How to block pop-up windows that opens up when a link is clicked? The feature in IE is to set the Blocking level as 'High: Block all pop-ups (Ctrl + Alt to override)' in Pop-up Blocker settings.
    Is there a similar feature in Mac?
    Thanks & appreciate the support

    In the menu bar, Safari > Preferences > Security > Web Content
    Some popups will not be blocked by this method, but blockable popups will be.

  • How to Block favicon safari 7.1

    How to Block favicon safari 7.1

    Sorry I don't think it's reasonable to expect Apple cater to every single need. Should there be a preference for disabling gifs, pngs or jpegs how about an option for disabling gifs that are blue but only on Mondays when it's raining? There are too many possibilities to cater for everyone and there are other browsers that already work how you desire.
    OS X used to have preferences for different Dock styles, but Apple have been removing those options for sometime now. Your final sentence make it clear you already understand how Apple progresses. I have been on the receiving end of Apple's arbitrary changes too, but there came a point where I just got over it & found alternatives.
    'defaults write' settings played havoc with users updating to 10.9 - some users had disabled screenshot shadows, that resulted in System Preferences that had sections of UI totally missing, it took weeks to unpick the reason for the fault! These edge case 'hidden settings' can be more trouble than you imagine. They conflict in new & interesting ways with every update.
    You can ask Apple to revert the change, but it doesn't seem like something they would do. There is a simple way to evaluate possible feature requests - Ask yourself 'How does this benefit Apple?'
    http://apple.com/feedback/
    I tested the 'ugly hack' & it worked for me but an extension is the correct way to resolve it. Another option is to setup a proxy server that blocks them from downloading on any device on the network. Ultimately if you don't want to investigate a solution you are part of the problem.

  • [Tutorial] How to disable Skype advertisements!

    WINDOWS ONLY
    The Skype Team forced us all to update to the latest version of Skype for one reason and one reason only: Money
    They want us to see their new advertisements so they make more profit; they don't care how bad they are at programming and how bad they are at developing Skype.
    Luckily, there is a solution to get rid of these advertisements and make Skype better (although it still has too many problems than the older versions).
    1. Open-up the control panel.
    2. Open-up "Network & Internet" then "Internet Options".
    3. Go to the "Security" tab.
    4. Click on the "Restricted Sites" icon, then the "Sites" button below it.
    5. Type "https://apps.skype.com/" (without the quotes) into the text box and click "Add"
    6. Close and apply the changes.
    7. Restart Skype.
    8. ???
    9. Profit!

    If you block https://apps.skype.com site, then you are also blocking Skype home.

  • Saturday evening my i phone 4S stolen i wanted to block my device how to block it please help i did not have its IMEI number please help

    Hi Everone i need your help.
    Saturday evening my iphone 4S device stolen.now its show unavailable am going to lodge a complaint in near police station but the asked for IMEI number that i does not remember so what will i do it is possible to track it? if not so please tell me how to block the device?
    Regards,

    You can use the Find My iPhone feature on iCloud.com. That would need to have your 4s updated to iOS 6 and up to be able to track it and/or clear it. There are a thousand combinations to unlock the simple 4-pin password, so you still have time left to find your iPhone. For more information on how to use Find My iPhone, go to:

  • How to block the new customer automaticly

    Hi,
       To create the new customer by sales area via xd01, how to block this customer by sales area automaticly?
    thx.

    hello, friend. 
    i am not aware of any feature in XD01/XD02/XD03 that will allow you to automatically block the customer.  however, there are settings in credit management that can propose a risk category for new customers which can have block settings.
    if this interests you, please check IMG > ENTERPRISE STRUCTURE > DEFINITION > FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING > DEFINE CREDIT CONTROL AREA.

  • Any help on blocking Skype access on a school netw...

    I just started helping with IT work at a middle school.  The kids are always trying to waste time in class instead of working (nothing new there!) and part of my job is to cut access to games, social networking sites, etc...  School isn't the place for those things, that's for after school / home.  We're doing pretty well on most of this - IM stuff, Facebook, etc... but Skype is giving us trouble.
    Can anyone provide some info on how we can block this at the network / firewall level?  The kids have their own laptops so we can't block the program itself.

    Considering you can't even block skype on the firewall then the network is hardly going to know the difference between there "break time" and when they are in a lesson. Maybe do a time constrait? so during their lunch time the restrictions are lifted? And yes I agree they shouldn't be doing it when the teacher is talking to them, thats just rude. But it does annoy me that everyone suffers just because a couple people take advantage.
    I used to be the hard working kid and I only played games occassionally but it was a right struggle. They will find a way to get round it anyway though. E.g. page 10 of google until they get to a certain game site or whatever. But yeah I would help you but I don't know how.
    I also find it quite halarious that students are making exactly the same posts but with the complete opposite intentions haha! E.g. what proxy will let me have 10 minutes of fun in a ultra boring class. I mean lets face it, if they are bored enough to go on skype then they aren't going to take anything in even if they couldn't go on skype. They would just look at the walls or chat to there friends. I would suggest maybe using software which allows you to "see" there screens. Or let the teacher do it? With remote control included in it. So you could take control of there mouse and hit x . They had it in my school during the last 2 years and it worked. They even let me use it as an I.C.T prefect
