What gets past email and antivirus

Threats that slip past other tools still need a DNS lookup. Switch views to see what filtering stops.

DNS Filtering questions

Straight answers on coverage, setup and reporting.

Still unsure? Talk to an engineer

How does DNS filtering work?

Every website visit starts with a DNS lookup. We check each lookup against threat and category lists, and block bad sites before the page ever loads.

Does it protect laptops away from the office?

Yes. Roaming agents on laptops filter DNS on any network, at home, in hotels or on public Wi-Fi.

Will it slow down our internet?

No. DNS lookups take milliseconds, and filtering adds almost nothing. Most users never notice it is there.

How long does setup take?

Most networks are filtered within one business day. Roaming agents roll out to laptops with no work for your users.

Can we set different rules for different teams?

Yes. We set content categories and allow lists by department, so each team gets the access it needs.

Does DNS filtering help schools meet CIPA?

Yes. We set up content filtering that supports CIPA rules, with reports that show it is in place.
