What is DNS?
The internet's Domain Name System (DNS) is like the phone book for the web. It works by translating your favorite URL—your go-to news source or favorite blog—into a language computers can understand. That language, the language of IP addresses, is a strings of digits like 105.136.183.204. Since it’d be a pain to memorize these digits for each of the sites you visit, DNS translates them into the common names you know them by.

What is DNS filtering?
DNS filtering is the practice of blocking access to certain sites for a specific purpose, often content-based filtering. If a site, or category of sites, has been deemed a threat, then its IP address is blocked with a DNS filter and access to it is prevented. Examples of sites that may be blocked include adult, gambling, productivity sinks, or those known to pose a significant malware risk.

DNS filtering is essential for businesses because it can severely limit the amount of threats a network is exposed to, helping to reduce significantly reduce the remediation workload for MSPs and IT pros. In fact, effective DNS filtering can stop up to 88 percent of internet-borne malware before it even reaches the network.

Another benefit of DNS filtering for businesses comes with increased staff productivity. Destinations like peer-to-peer streaming sites, in addition to being surefire sources of malware, can also sap bandwidth and distract workers. When policies for DNS filtering are set to avoid time-wasting sites like these and other potential sources of HR pain, business owners can take back control of their networks.

Why do I need DNS Filtering?
Unmanaged, uncontrolled internet usage seriously impacts security, visibility of internet use, network speed, and staff productivity. Threat protection and content filtering should be easy. DNSFilter makes it simple to deploy an enterprise content filtering solution at an affordable price. You can be up and running in minutes, without any contracts or commitments.

• Security - DNS Filtering prevents users from accessing malicious sites that can administer phishing, ransomware, or cryptojacking attacks. It can stop up to 88% of internet-borne malware before it even reaches the network.
• Visibility of Internet Use - DNS Filtering gives business owners full control and visibility over websites visited and other internet activities.
• Network speed - DNS Filtering prevents access to identified sites like peer-to-peer streaming sites or social media sites that not only distracts workers during work hours, but can also sap bandwidth.
• Productivity - DNS filtering policies are set to avoid time-wasting sites like streaming and social media and other potential sources of HR pain, so business owners can take back control of their networks.
• Off-Site Protection - Available on Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android, and ChromeOS. Prevent access to unwanted and malicious content on all devices, inside and outside your network.

  Seamlessly integrate with your current DNS infrastructure. Prohibit access to questionable and risky online sites. Allow unrestricted browsing at lunch time and strict browsing during working hours.

Web Filter List
Web Filter lists are customisable per organization. But from an IT perspective, there are categories that pose higher security risk than others (e.g. adult/mature content), and consume bandwidth (e.g. streaming and downloading sites). These have no place in the work environment and non-negotiable. Other filter settings will depend on an organisation's requirements.

DNS Filter: Controlling Internet Access
Uncontrolled internet access is a high-risk activity for any business, regardless of size. Faced with today’s sophisticated attacks, endpoint security is no longer enough to stay safe from modern cybercrime. DNS Filter lets businesses take control of internet use within the company's network.

Block Website Content at the DNS Level
When you filter website content at the DNS level, you're able to block threats and traffic to inappropriate websites earlier than other methods like traditional firewalls. Blocking content at the DNS layer means fewer threats get through your defenses and inappropriate sites aren't as easily circumvented. Stopping the DNS request means that a website you want to block is never seen by the end user, preventing any harm that can be done by that site.

Ensures safe Internet browsing
Using DNS filtering means putting a roadblock to malicious websites that can potentially steal your personal information. Some other threats include:

• Ransomware
• Phishing
• Spyware
• Virus
• Malware

You can avoid all the above risks by just applying the DNS filter.

Protects your data
