Prevention
By blocking access to infected websites, infections can be prevented at their source.
Enhance your organisation's security with the Switch DNS Firewall: Our firewall utilises the technology of Domain Name Service Response Policy Zones (DNS RPZ) to modify specific DNS information. Through this modification, alternative responses to DNS queries for domains with malicious content can be generated. This effectively protects all devices before a connection to potentially harmful systems is established.
By blocking access to infected websites, infections can be prevented at their source.
Thanks to our mandate as a .CH domain registry, Switch is able to reliably identify already infected domains and systems. As a DNS firewall customer, you benefit from our expertise and are promptly informed about infected systems in your organisation through security reports.
When access is attempted to a malicious domain, users are redirected to a secure landing page. This not only contributes to improving IT security but also enhances general awareness of the dangers on the internet.
