Internet Filtering
Protect Your Business from Malicious Websites.
Minimize Risks, Maximize Safety and Productivity on the Web
The Internet is full of malicious websites looking to steal your information or get you to download harmful files. Criminals have gotten more sophisticated creating tricky domains (website addresses) and slick looking websites to trick users into thinking they are on a trusted website. They even put malware on sites that is downloaded without you realizing it. No reason to worry if you have our DNS Filtering.
DNS Filtering Benefits
- Stop threats before they hit your network
- Granular control how to your network and devices are used
- Detailed insight into what types of threats might impact your network
- User-level reporting on sites and apps used by employees
- Meet compliance requirements around DNS filtering protection
- Increased productivity by blocking time-wasting and inappropriate websites
Protective Internet Filtering for Security, Visibility, and Control.
Protection
Protect your business by not even allowing a user to get to a harmful download even if they click on a link. We won’t’ allow that web address to be served. This gives you protection at lightning speed. You don’t have to download it and hope a program scans for it…you are just redirected in milliseconds.
Security
We secure your network by keeping threats out and not allowing your employees to use unwanted applications or websites. It helps you meet compliance by having the extra level of security, by limiting what and how devices can access sites over the Internet.
Control
Every business is unique. Every deployment is unique. We give you the control to determine what is blocked by which devices when. In addition to blocking malicious sites and inappropriate content, if you don’t want your employees watching Netflix or spending their time on social media or shopping during work, you can stop that.
Reporting
Get full reports of the threats that were blocked from your network. Insights are available into your devices and network activity. This can help you identify threats before they happen and help you in meeting your compliance.
What is DNS?
DNS is a Domain Name Server. It is the Internet’s traffic controller. It tells you where to go and how to get there. Every time you get on the Internet you use DNS to make sure you get to the correct place, whether it be a website like google.com or sending an email.
We provide your DNS where we have scanned sites and can help keep your network safe. We prevent sites from being loaded to your network. Instead, we will redirect you to a webpage letting you know we are preventing access. Administrators have full control over the messaging and what is allowed or blocked.
How it Works
We use a DNS Filter that scans and categorizes millions of sites for behaviors, files, content, and intention. Based on your unique settings, we direct or redirect users according to your settings. By doing this at a DNS level, we are able to quickly send the traffic where it needs to go.

Chuck Klein
"Very quick responsive answer to my complicated issue."
Russ Connors

I am now semi-retired, but will still continue my relationship with ISOC. Any problem that I faced was always dealt with in a responsive and professional way. Also, I want make a special “shout out” to Tommy O’Donnell with your support group. He is a problem solver extraordinaire. He has the remarkable ability to communicate with someone like myself who barely can spell computer on good day. I have complete trust in his abilities and advice."
Jack
"Since switching to Office 365 from our inhouse email, our company has experienced almost zero email down time. The support we receive from the team at ISOCNET is friendly and professional and are very quick to address any issues that do come up. ISOCNET has been invaluable in their assistance as we move our sister companies into Office 365 also. I would highly recommend ISOCNET to anyone looking to move to Office 365."

Gratefully, Missy
"Hi, All. I really want to pass on my thanks to ISOC for having Josh Miller on your team. I have been a member of ISOC for about 15 years. I have never had anything but wonderful, attentive service whenever I had a question or problem. Josh took it to another level with his patience with me being a complete non-techie, helping me frequently with both emails and phone conversations. He held my hand through a most difficult series of issues with my not understanding how to make things work. Thanks for having such a great employee!"
Scott

"Hi, I just wanted to let you guys know what a gem you have in Shelley Enda. She is patient, smart, down-to-Earth and always flexible. We have recently had changes in leadership that have caused us to slow down on web design. She has been invaluable in helping us get through this process. I am always telling her how great she is but I want to make sure that everyone else does too. She is an excellent representation of your company. Seriously, she bends over backwards to make us happy."
Thanks, Erin

Frequently Asked Questions
Find the answers to questions that most new ISOCNET clients have, designed to help you select the right business plan for your needs
Why do I need a DNS Filter?
A DNS Filter protects you from getting to unwanted sites or content before you ever download it. So, it gives you protection and keeps you productive, by preventing your employees from going to time-wasting websites.
Does your DNS Filter slow me down?
No it does not slow you down because you are redirected at the DNS level. This will take milliseconds and redirect you accordingly.
What are some policies I can set up?
You can block/unblock certain categories and applications, as well as individual sites and IP’s. In addition you can enforce Safe Search across search engines, that filters out explicit content from the searches. You can also set time frames for different policies to be enforced.
How do you know what category a site falls into?
Based on the content, AI, and human interactions, sites are constantly scanned and categorized.
