What Levels of Security does OpenDNS Provide for My Network?

OpenDNS offers the following three types of security to prevent unsafe activity during your online sessions:

  1. Known websites that attempt to infect visitors with malware or botnets are blocked.
  2. Unknowingly visiting phishing websites is prevented. Our list of known phishing sites is updated daily.
  3. OpenDNS can also block suspicious websites that use IP addresses that are reserved only for internal networks.

OpenDNS security features offer significant safety benefits that protect Internet users from identity theft, infected computer systems and related down-time, and from receiving and unwittingly spreading viruses, botnets and spam.
