Answer options
A: Add "google.com" to "allow insecure content on these sites"
B: Add "google.com" to "disallowed URLs in content settings"
C: Add "google.com" to "the blocked URL exceptions"
D: Add "google.com" to "the list of blocked URLs" Correct answer
Correct Answer:
D. Add "google.com" to "the list of blocked URLs"
Explanation

To prevent users from accessing specific websites, the administrator must use the "URL blocking" policy. Adding "google.com" to "the list of blocked URLs" in the Google Admin console will enforce this policy. This setting explicitly tells ChromeOS to deny any navigation attempts to the specified URL and its subdomains. This is the direct and intended method for blacklisting websites for users or sessions, including Managed Guest Sessions, within an organizational unit.

Why Incorrect

A. "Allow insecure content on these sites" is a security setting to create exceptions for mixed content, not for blocking sites.
B. "Disallowed URLs in content settings" is not the correct name for the policy; the correct policy is "URL blocking" or "Blocked URLs".
C. "The blocked URL exceptions" (URL allowlist) is used to allow access to sites that would otherwise be blocked by a wildcard entry in the blocklist.
