Protect your guest WiFi users against cyber threats and inappropriate content on the internet
Would you use a solution to secure your guest WiFi from dangerous and inappropriate sites without any new hardware and software?
DNS filtering is the most comprehensive web filtering technique. It blocks unwanted sites altogether before users access them. DNS filtering blocks both HTTP and HTTPS sites. 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.
To deliver users an exceptionally accurate web filtering, the company uses its own web categorization database with 109M sites, distributed in 5 dozen content categories. With the database information we analyze each DNS query from SafeDNS-protected devices to define what content categories the requested site belongs to. The queries for sites from user allowed categories are successfully resolved into IP addresses of the requested sites. Otherwise, SafeDNS shows users a service block page – instead of the requested site from user blocked categories
No worries for parents with kids who connect to your guest WiFi with the SafeDNS web filtering service on. Block the web content family people do not want their children see – pornographic, adult, gross, explicit, and vulgar sites.
A SafeDNS-protected WiFi prevents its users from accessing malicious and phishing sites which can severely damage users’ devices, steal personal and corporate info. To protect your WiFi users against these cyber threats, filter out all security-related categories of content in the SafeDNS service management panel.
With us, you can easily block any dangerous and unwanted content so you keep your visitors happy and get no complaints. Choose which content categories to block or allow from the 61 SafeDNS categories.
