Fix Recommendation

1. In the Edge SWG Web UI, navigate to Configuration.
2. Go to "Services and Proxy Services".
3. Under "Proxy Services", remove all services like FTP, etc., other than HTTP, HTTPS, CAC-Mc-Notify, and any other required reverse proxy (e.g., HTTP/2 reverse proxy like H2-Console).
4. Only authorized proxy service must be configured for Intercept, and any service not in use must be removed, not just set to Bypass.
