Web & DNS Filtering

☂ Helps satisfy common cyber insurance requirements

Also covers: DNS Filtering

What is web & dns filtering?

A web traffic filter controls which websites and online services employees can access from your business network. It blocks access to malicious sites, inappropriate content, and platforms that pose security or productivity risks.

Why it matters

Many security threats originate from malicious websites that employees visit - sometimes unknowingly. Filtering web traffic adds a layer of protection that stops threats before they reach your devices.

How we implement it

We deploy a cloud-based web filtering solution that evaluates every website visit in real time against up-to-date threat intelligence and category policies. Rules are customized to your business needs, and we provide reporting on blocked threats.

What your organization gets

Malicious websites are blocked before they can deliver malware or steal credentials.

Policy Enforcement

Control access to sites that conflict with your business or security policies.

Real-Time Protection

Threat databases are updated continuously to account for new malicious sites.

Reporting

See what's being blocked and what your team is accessing for full visibility.

Common questions

What does web filtering actually block?

Malicious sites, phishing pages, and lookalike domains, plus categories you choose to restrict on work devices. Threats are stopped at the address-lookup level, before the dangerous page even loads.

Does filtering work when laptops leave the office?

Yes. Protection travels with the device, so a laptop on home Wi-Fi or hotel internet gets the same filtering as one at your desk. Coverage does not depend on your office network.

Can we control what categories are blocked?

Completely. Security threats are always blocked, and beyond that the policy is yours: some organizations restrict only dangerous content, others limit distractions. We configure it to your culture.

DNS Filtering

DNS filtering blocks access to malicious websites at the network level - before a dangerous page even loads on your employee’s device. It acts as an invisible safety net that intercepts attempts to visit harmful or inappropriate sites. We configure a DNS filtering solution for your network and devices that queries a continuously updated database of malicious and inappropriate domains. Blocked requests are logged, giving us visibility into what threats are being intercepted.
