This AWS blog post explains how to implement URL and domain category filtering with AWS Network Firewall: configure HOME_NET, create domain-category rules using the console or Suricata-compatible rule strings, manage exceptions (for example allowing OpenAI while blocking other AI/ML domains), and monitor category usage and bandwidth with CloudWatch Logs Insights to inform policy and compliance decisions.
