DNS Web Filtering Service by Cisco
Web filtering is an important layer of internet protection that can prevent employees, even in incognito mode, from reaching inappropriate sites that deliver malware.
Nearly all internet access uses a DNS (domain name service), call, or instruction. This is where Cisco Umbrella, the world's best web filtering service provides protection.
How does a web filtering service work?
Web security starts at the user's computer and the browser's default search engine. When the user searches for or clicks on a URL, Umbrella web filtering solutions look for known malicious URLS first and active web threats. The goal is to protect users from themselves. Cisco will block access from all the major browsers trying to reach any other websites with malicious intent.
It works by scanning web traffic for potential threats and blocking any malicious content before it reaches its destination. This ensures that any potentially harmful websites, applications, or files are blocked from entering your system and putting users at risk
