DNS Security & Content Filtering for Superior Threat Protection

Your distributed workforce accesses the internet from a variety of devices, making DNS security services, internet policy, and content enforcement more complex while remaining critical to combatting network breaches.

Cyber Shield with CloudConnexa: Security on, headache off.

Whether your team is using a company-issued or personal device, bad actors are targeting your business through unsecured networks, malicious websites, and social engineering attacks. However, the answer doesn’t always lie in tunneling all network traffic. With OpenVPN, you can protect against threats and boost employee productivity by blocking malicious and unwanted sites.

Enforce internet usage policies

No matter where your team is located, block sites that hinder productivity without overly intrusive software.

Protect against cyber threats and boost employee productivity

You need secure internet policies to protect your team against accidental malware downloads and sophisticated phishing attacks. But, insufficient DNS (domain name system) security can leave you vulnerable to cyberattacks. How can you reduce your attack surface without slowing down performance? CloudConnexa can help.

Secure devices

As phishing, malware, and ransomware attacks expand, protecting your organization when employees have unfiltered use of their mobile phones and laptops is critical.

Secure Devices

Prevent DNS attacks

The internet’s DNS system exposes dangerous attack vectors bad actors can use to block access or maliciously redirect web requests (e.g., to phishing sites). Stop these attacks before they start with OpenVPN.

Prevent DNS Attacks

Enforce company internet policies

Visiting non-work-related or inappropriate websites can lead to malware threats, loss in productivity, and excessive corporate bandwidth usage. Filter potentially harmful websites without intrusive software.

Enforce Company Internet Policies

Eliminate poor application performance

Tunneling all internet traffic through security devices can create a chokepoint and degrade application performance. Keep apps and internet speed running smoothly by only filtering what’s necessary.

Application Performance

CloudConnexa for DNS security and content filtering

Your distributed workforce regularly accesses the internet from various devices, including personal mobile devices. All of these devices need to be consistently protected because they also connect to your corporate applications. For example, something as innocent as checking personal email and simple web browsing increases the risk of phishing and malware attacks. This can make internet policy and content enforcement more complex, while remaining critical to ensuring security with all devices accessing your network.
Cyber Shield, a built-in feature of CloudConnexa, delivers DNS-based content filtering so organizations can avoid malware infections and excessive bandwidth use by controlling employee access to potentially harmful external websites.
