Sonicwall Signatures

Application: SnapChat

SnapChat is a photo sharing app for Apple iOS and Android devices. The app permits the time-sensitive sharing of photos--photos self-destruct after a user-configurable amount of time--usually the photo disappears after 1-10 seconds. SnapChat is hosted at Google-owned, AppSpot.com and connects to the Appspot.com servers overSSL/HTTPS. Blocking Snapchat can be accomplished in two ways. Customers with DPI-SSL CI enabled can simply enable this application and all of its signatures. Without DPI-SSL CI, customers must enable the AppSpot.com application signatures. In this second case, there will be false positives, namely, you will be blocking all applications hosted at AppSpot.com.
