Protective filtering to increase security, visibility, privacy, and control. Maximize safety, minimize risks, and maximize productivity while surfing the internet. Businesses today need to have visible, secure, private, manageable, and visible control of internet traffic. The current domain name system (DNS), simply resolves internet requests via a global network of servers. These servers then translate those requests into unique Internet Protocol (IP), addresses. This vital service was not designed to be secure and there are many DNS vulnerabilities and exploits. Protective DNS services like Webroot®, DNS Protection allow organizations to manage their networks and ensure that they have the visibility, security, privacy, and visibility they need to protect their IT infrastructure and users. This includes remote workers. Its primary goal is to provide a secure, private, resilient, and manageable internet connection. Automated filtering uses Webroot BrightCloud® Internet Threat Intelligence in order to block requests.
