Upon speed, we add security

DNSFilter is powered by machine learning and built on the fastest Dual Anycast network. With robust end-user protection, over 30 million threats per day are blocked by DNSFilter at the DNS layer.

Our fast Dual Anycast network affords us the speed needed to analyze a DNS query, filter content based on policy, and stop both known and potentially zero-day threats before the IP address resolves, protecting users and safeguarding businesses.

World's Fastest—and Largest—Dual Anycast Network.

Stability and reliability

An inherent promise of any DNS is that it will be fast, stable, and reliable—DNSFilter delivers on this promise. While we consistently deliver on the speed you want, we make it our mission to deliver on the stability and reliability you need and expect.

Operating on the world's largest Dual Anycast network isn't just something nice to say, it's what assure you can rely on it. Running a dual network allows us to proactively and seamlessly take a datacenter off our global network whenever a catastrophic event or maintenance occurs.

Providing seamless DNS resolution across our Dual Anycast network is achieved through redundancy, with load balancing, over redundant fiber connectivity, power protection, backup generators, and off-site backups. It also allows us to do non-disruptive maintenance on our network more easily than other DNS resolvers.

This all means the speed you want also has reliable uptime. If any element of our network goes down, there's a backup that will start doing the heavy lifting.
