Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a method and system for displaying an HTTPS block page without SSL inspection. Specifically, a network device snoops a first message transmitted between a client device and a network resource. The first message is transmitted as part of a SSL Handshake between the client device and the network resource to establish a SSL session. Moreover, the network device determines whether the client device is authorized to access the network resource. If not, the network device blocks the establishment of a SSL session between the client device and the network resource, and spoofs the network resource for establishing the SSL session between the client device and the network device instead of establishment of the SSL session between the client device and the network resource. Otherwise, the network device refrains from blocking the establishment of the SSL session between the client device and the network resource.
