Secure DNS protects users and systems from the very first lookup.
Detect, block, and prevent connections to malicious domains before payloads become active or data leaves your network. Secure DNS protects users, servers, printers, scanners, and other network components through a managed DNS layer that stays quick to deploy.
Immediately visible
What Secure DNS actually does
DNS-layer protection for users, servers, scanners, IoT, and scripts.
New or newly seen domains can be treated more strictly for a limited period.
A simple MVP design with a growth path toward more tenants and more nodes.
Why Secure DNS
Many attacks do not begin in a firewall or browser, but earlier, at the DNS request itself. That is exactly where Secure DNS adds a practical security layer with 24/7 monitoring, direct blocking, and room for customer-specific allow or deny listing. Not as a loose gadget, but as a managed service that fits email, hosting, and infrastructure operations.
Before a session really starts
By filtering at DNS level, malicious traffic is stopped early, before browsers or applications keep talking to the target or payloads can activate.
Compact and explainable
Proven open-source components, simple scripts, and a separate dashboard keep the service manageable, reproducible, and quick to implement.
A natural fit next to MX-Relay
For customers, it feels like the same quality line: managed, technically solid, clearly explained, and focused on continuity.
Key benefits
Secure DNS is designed as a practical protection layer that fits day-to-day operations: low friction, more control.
Threat feeds without overengineering
Public feeds are processed locally into a clear policy layer that can later be refined per customer.
NRD protection as an extra brake
New or newly seen domains are often attractive for phishing campaigns. Secure DNS can treat them more strictly for a limited period and then reassess them.
Logging and blockpage in the same flow
Blocked queries, categories, and top domains become visible in a dashboard that can later be extended with more context or SOC workflows.
Built for managed services
The service fits MSPs, hosting providers, and internal IT teams that prefer delivering a product instead of a loose collection of tools.
Ready for production environments
Secure DNS is practical for organizations that want to add confidence to internet traffic while keeping the service easy to manage and explain.
Protect workstations, printers, servers, scanners, and scripts from a central resolver without requiring separate agents as a baseline.
Offer DNS protection as an additional managed security layer to customers, with room for future custom allow and deny lists.
Keep outbound platform traffic to risky domains under control and make suspicious DNS patterns visible sooner.
Use cases
ManagementOffice and user traffic
Reduce click risk from phishing emails and malicious links before browsers or clients keep connecting.
Servers, scripts, and applications
See which domains are requested by systems and catch suspicious outbound requests early.
Roaming and customer environments later
The control plane is ready for further expansion into portal integration, customer policies, and white-label scenarios.
Technical benefits and operations
The technical stack is intentionally compact: solid enough for production, but simple enough to maintain, document, and harmonize across brands later on.
Resolver and policy in one clear chain
Unbound, local policies, feed ingest, and a compact policy generator provide predictable behavior and a reproducible VPS setup.
Dashboard with staged management
Blocked queries, top domains, and whitelist or blacklist management are kept separate from the core, making them suitable for later portal integrations, SOC workflows, or brand expansion.
Block page and reason mapping
Blocked domains can be sent to a clean block page with domain and category details, consistent with the overall service experience.
Ready for portal and brand expansion
The control plane is ready for deeper integration with MX-Relay or another brand, and can later support protection beyond the fixed network as well.
