Secure DNS

The vast majority of cyber attacks today are carried out via insecure/dangerous websites (domains) that are activated e.g. via a phishing email or via a legitimate website that has been hijacked and modified with malicious code. When a person activates such a link, the code from a malicious website is executed through the browser and the attack is a reality.

Most attacks, like all other internet users, rely on DNS to direct the user to an infected website or command-and-control server. Derfor kan man med Secure DNS, på forhånd checke om en hjemmeside (url/domæne) er kendt for at være skadelig, og forhindre brugere i at tilgå den. Denne Secure DNS service logger alle DNS opslag og validerer på forhånd om den indeholder farlig kode eller er en kendt command-and-control server.

Internet pages/domains that are accessed for the very first time, e.g. in connection with the first (zero-day) attack, are examined very carefully and then classified before the user is allowed to view it. The next users who access the same page will then benefit from the fact that it has already been checked. Secure DNS works on all platforms and is completely independent of which browser or PC type (Windows, Linux, MAC, etc.) you use.

Today, Secure DNS unblocks more than 6 million websites (domains) and 50-70,000 new ones are added daily, instantly benefiting users of the service.
