Protect your students against dangerous and inappropriate content on the internet
SafeDNS provides an award-winning cloud service for a granular content filtering and internet security to educational institutions of any level:
Protect your network users against anything you dislike about the internet.
To deliver users an exceptionally accurate web filtering, SafeDNS uses its own web categorization database with 109M sites, distributed in 6 dozen content categories.
DNS-based filtering is the most comprehensive web filtering technique. It blocks unwanted sites altogether before users access them. It also restricts accesses to both HTTP and HTTPS sites. Other than that, DNS filtering is indispensable for blocking malicious sites as over 90% of malware uses DNS to carry out malicious campaigns.
SafeDNS users decide which categories of content to block or allow on their network. We provide 61 SafeDNS categories to choose from.
With the SafeDNS web filtering service on, there is no more place for pornography and websites that conflict with kids’ study goals.
Use SafeDNS to protect your entire student network from malware. Prevent students and staff from accessing sites with cryptomining malware and other threats besetting your network.
Does your institution have multiple campuses? Manage your filtering settings and access for all your premises from a single monitoring point, i.e., your centralized dashboard in SafeDNS software.
Start DNS-filtering in minutes. There’s no need for any additional hardware or software. Just redirect your DNS queries to SafeDNS filtering servers based on your own filtering rules.
You can set different filtering settings for students of all ages, and staff members at any level. Create as many filtering policies as you need for advanced web access management.
Review detailed filtering stats in real-time to keep an eye on the online activities of your students and staff. Adjust the filter on the go as you see fit.
SafeDNS is a perfect solution for educational institutions like K-12 schools that wish to comply with the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) in the USA, or BpjM (Federal Review Board for Media Harmful to Minors) in Germany. Filter out pornography, sexual abuse and other illegal content in just a few clicks.
Filter out terrorism-promoting content which poses a threat to young and grown-up individuals. To protect users against terror-related content, SafeDNS adds a list of sites, compiled by Counter Terrorism Internet Referral Unit run by the Metropolitan Police of the UK, to a filtering category named 'Hate & Discrimination'.
SafeDNS has also created 2 categories dedicated to blocking any content related to child sexual abuse. To provide effective results, the categories are synced with the IWF Child Sexual Abuse Content List and Project Arachnid database for unwanted content, both widely known for their efforts towards child protection.
Since 2015, SafeDNS content filtering service has been certified by the AV-Comparatives, a high-profile test lab. The ‘Approved Parental Control Product’ award has been given 4 times in a row.
