Secure Access Help Center

Create Custom Block and Warn Pages

Instead of showing end users the default block or warn message with the Secure Access logo, you can display your own logo, custom Block and Warn messages, and an option to contact an administrator. You can also display different pages depending on the reason for the block.

You can create a custom Block page and a custom Warn page as a set, and then choose them in a Web profile.
