Security

Protect yourself against malware and phishing attacks, cryptojacking and more.

Determine your threat model and fine-tune your security strategy by enabling 10+ different types of protections.

Use the most trusted threat intelligence feeds containing millions of malicious domains — all updated in real-time.

Go beyond the domain — we analyze DNS questions and answers on-the-fly (in a matter of nanoseconds) in order to detect and block malicious behavior.

With usually only a few hours between domain registration and the start of an attack, our threat intelligence system is built to catch malicious domains earlier than classic security solutions.
