{mprestriction ids="1,2"}Dualog Protect blocks ransomware, trojans and phishing attempts as well as preventing ‘command-and-control call-backs’ and data exfiltration. By operating at the DNS-level the service protects all computers and devices attached to all onboard networks.
In addition to improving cyber security, Protect can also filter traffic for domains and services according to company policies, by allowing or blocking specific domains or URLs. This works on all protocols, websites and apps, without breaking data encryption, the company says.
