Description
WatchGuard DNSWatch is a cloud-based solution that enhances security through DNS-level filtering, which helps identify and prevent potentially harmful connections while safeguarding both networks and employees from destructive attacks. Critical alerts are analyzed by WatchGuard experts, who provide clear summaries that include in-depth information regarding any potential threats. In instances where phishing is involved and an employee inadvertently clicks a malicious link, DNSWatch swiftly redirects them away from the harmful site and supplies educational resources to bolster their understanding of phishing risks. Since hackers often exploit DNS to launch attacks on unaware targets, monitoring DNS requests proves to be an effective strategy for detecting and thwarting such threats. By incorporating DNS-level filtering into the Total Security Suite, DNSWatch adds an essential layer of protection against malware infections. Additionally, attempts made by users to connect to recognized malicious DNS addresses are automatically blocked, ensuring they are redirected to a secure landing page without any disruption to their experience. This proactive approach not only defends against immediate threats but also educates users, contributing to a more security-conscious workplace.
Description
A DNS (Domain Name System) changer converts web addresses such as Surfshark.com into the numerical IP addresses essential for machine communication. Typically, your DNS provider is your Internet Service Provider (ISP), which has the capability to monitor your web activity and retain your browsing history. By using a DNS changer, you can enhance your privacy since it encrypts your DNS requests and allows you to connect to public DNS servers provided by third parties. Changing your DNS settings is relatively straightforward; you can manually adjust them through your device’s Wi-Fi settings by editing the network configuration. Alternatively, you can simplify the process by using the Trust DNS app, which enables you to switch DNS servers with just one tap. There are two primary methods to utilize the Trust DNS app: you can either activate its server for improved browsing security or connect to one of the free third-party DNS servers that offer features like content filtering, ad blocking, and protection against malware. This flexibility ensures that users can choose an option that best suits their needs while enhancing their online experience.
