Dashboard overview with lookups, blocked categories and schools online

A filter you run from a dashboard

Point DNS at the service, choose categories, and watch what happens. No appliance, no agent on the computers.

Per-site policies

Choose from 23 blocking categories for each site, with always-allow and always-block lists on top.

PIN bypass for staff

A public page where authorized staff unblock adult categories for 15, 30 or 60 minutes. It reverts by itself and is logged.

Logs and reports

Searchable activity, printable reports, and CSV exports of blocked lookups and bypass use.

Works on any network

Point a router or firewall at the filter, or give a device a private encrypted link. The same policy applies either way.

The encrypted link also works where a provider redirects ordinary DNS, and on laptops and phones away from your network.

The staff bypass page works from any phone.

Questions

How the filter relates to the rest of the platform.

How is this related to the database and API?

The filter uses our categorized web filtering database. If you would rather build your own filter, the offline database and the API remain available.

What do we change on our network?

Set the DNS server on your router or firewall to the address we give you. If you cannot, use the private encrypted link on the devices.

Can staff unblock adult content for research?

Yes. Staff enter a PIN and unblock adult categories for 15, 30 or 60 minutes. It switches back on by itself and each use is logged.

Is there a pilot?

Yes, on one or two sites. Contact us with your number of sites and devices.
