DNSFilter

Ten years ago today, DNSFilter was born from a simple but powerful idea. Today, we're humbled to be trusted by over 43,000 organizations around the globe. This milestone is a testament to the relentless innovation of our team, the incredible trust of our customers, and the collaborative spirit of our partners. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our story, and to our founders Ken Carnesi and Brian Gillis. As we celebrate the last 10 years of growth and protection, we can confidently say—we're just getting started. Here's to the next ten! 💫 #DNSFilter #Cybersecurity #10YearsofDNSFilter

For years, we’ve been building toward a more intelligent approach to security. Today, we’re providing the proof. We are thrilled to officially launch CyberSight, a powerful new behavioral analytics and intelligence capability built for the modern security team. 🌐 In a world where the average organization uses over 100 SaaS apps, traditional DNS filtering—which only shows what was blocked—leaves critical blind spots. You can't protect what you can't see. CyberSight changes that by delivering full visibility into: ✅ User Behavior: Granular URL tracking and activity timelines. ✅ Shadow IT: Uncover unauthorized SaaS usage and risky applications. ✅ Incident Response: Accelerate investigations with context on "the clicks before the block." ✅ SaaS Optimization: Identify unused licenses to eliminate redundant spend. 💰 By separating meaningful user actions from background system noise, CyberSight provides the "why" behind the traffic. It’s not just about filtering anymore; it’s about total network intelligence. 🛡️ Read the full press release and see how we’re eliminating visibility gaps: dnsfilter.com/newsroom/cyber…

Whether you’re looking for high-level strategy or high-speed excitement, we have you covered at the Moscone Center this year. Take a break from the noise of the show floor.

DNSFilter is officially launching DNS PreCheck, a major leap forward in securing the hybrid workforce 💫 For years, IT teams have fought the "broken internet" battle—juggling VPN conflicts and restrictive guest Wi-Fi.

By processing filtering directly on the device via a transparent proxy, DNS PreCheck provides: ✅ Zero DNS Conflicts: No more loopback address headaches. ✅ Native IPv6 Support: No more security blind spots. ✅ Seamless Coexistence: It plays nice with your entire security stack. 🛡️ Maximum protection. Minimum friction. It’s that simple. Check out the full announcement from our Senior Product Marketing Manager, Jamie Gale: dnsfilter.com/newsroom/dns-p…

Our CTO, TK Keanini, just published a new piece in CircleID exploring how bad actors are weaponizing DNS—specifically how they use new domains and AI automation to stay one step ahead of traditional security.
