Blocking Hotspot Shield VPN

VPN

Hi All,

Currently a Sysadmin within a school. I am having some trouble at the moment blocking Hotspot shield. Have tried a few options in blocking this but I am not having any luck. Currently have a Fortigate inline, attempted to use their signature without any prevail. Is anyone aware of any products/services or appliances that can successfully stop Hotspot shield in its tracks?

Please use the Application Control signature “Hotspot.Shield” to block the VPN. You will need to set the following signatures to Block too: “ISAKMP”, “PPTP” and “L2TP”. They are used on the iOS app to connect to the servers. Hotspot Shield VPN is one of the most evasive VPN, be sure to update your IPS Definition whenever a new one is available.
