Use Lumiun DNS as a DNS security layer to block malicious domains, phishing, malware, and unwanted website categories before access starts.
Quick setup. Start applying browsing policies using the DNS layer.
Block domains associated with phishing, malware, ransomware, and other online threats.
Define categories, applications, blocklists, and allowlists according to the organization's policy.
Manage policies, locations, devices, and reports in a simple, centralized dashboard.
Adapt access rules by environment, usage profile, or managed client.
A DNS server is responsible for translating website names, such as example.com, into addresses that devices use to find those services on the internet.
The problem is that, without a security layer, DNS only resolves the address. It does not help decide whether that domain is safe, malicious, inappropriate, or incompatible with company policy.
This is where Lumiun DNS comes in. It acts as a DNS security layer and browsing filter, checking the domain before the website loads. If the address is associated with a threat or a blocked category, access can be prevented before the connection proceeds.
Lumiun DNS is a DNS management and security solution that provides protection against digital threats and optimizes internet usage in corporate and institutional environments.
| Regular DNS | Lumiun DNS |
|---|---|
| Resolves domains for browsing | Resolves domains and applies security and browsing policies |
| Does not block website categories | Allows blocking categories such as games, gambling, adult content, social networks, and more |
| Does not help reduce phishing access | Helps block domains associated with phishing, malware, and ransomware |
| Little or no browsing visibility | Reports with accesses, blocks, domains, locations, devices, and groups |
| Rules depend on external manual configuration | Centralized dashboard management |
Lumiun DNS does not replace antivirus, firewall, or user training. It complements these layers by reducing the chance of accessing dangerous or unwanted destinations right at the DNS resolution stage.
The 4 steps of the process:
The user tries to access a website
The device needs to query DNS to find out where it should connect.
Lumiun DNS checks the domain
Analyzes whether that domain is allowed, blocked, or associated with a threat.
The policy is applied
If allowed, access proceeds normally. If blocked, access is prevented.
The team monitors it through the dashboard
Accesses, blocks, domains, locations, and devices are available in the reports.
How the Lumiun DNS server works
When you point your network or device to Lumiun DNS, all domain queries pass through the security layer before access is granted. Lumiun DNS checks each domain in real time and applies the policies configured by the organization.
Works for different environments:
DNS Server
Combine filtros de segurança, produtividade e regras personalizadas para controlar o acesso à internet com precisão.
Security
Filtros para bloquear ameaças e domínios maliciosos.
Blocks harmful sites, phishing, and malware. This filter prevents various types of attacks, increasing security.
Blocks sites containing videos or images of child sexual abuse. This filter is in partnership with the Arachnid Project.
Bloqueia os principais anúncios e rastreadores nos dispositivos. A ativação deste filtro pode comprometer o funcionamento de alguns sites.
Domains frequently involved in unauthorized use of devices for cryptocurrency mining.
Blocks recently registered domains (NRD) and classified with high chance of being used in phishing scams, including data theft.
Filters sites with high entropy names and newly registered domains (NRD), often used by malicious programs.
Domains that are no longer controlled by the original owner or are for sale. The content of these sites may be misleading to non-technical users.
Blocks access to generative AI services that may pose risks of data leakage or misuse. Manually allow the services you want on your allowlist.
Enable SafeSearch on Google, Bing, and YouTube to keep adult content out of your search results.
Productivity and focus
Control distractions and inappropriate categories.
Social networks, messaging, games, video, music, shopping, news, sports, entertainment, and technology.
With a simple click, you can block adult content sites such as pornography and violence.
Blocks gambling and gaming websites, preventing potentially harmful and unregulated activities on your network.
Blocks websites, P2P protocols, streaming sites, and generic video hosting services used for illegal distribution of copyrighted content.
Free choice and controls
Customize blocks by lists and schedules.
Inclua domínios específicos ou importe listas completas para reforçar o filtro DNS com regras personalizadas.
Create periods when certain blocks can be lifted, such as breaks or outside business hours.
Need something different?
Add any domain manually, import ready-made lists, and combine exceptions by group or device.
DNS Server
Control employee browsing, reduce access to dangerous websites, and apply clear internet usage rules without relying on manual, site-by-site blocks.
Practical example:
Block gambling, adult content, and malicious domains for all users, allow specific marketing tools, and apply stricter rules on guest networks.
Create a safer and more appropriate browsing environment for students, teachers, and administrative staff.
Practical example:
Block adult content, games, malicious websites, and unprotected search engines, while keeping different policies for students, teachers, administration, and labs.

DNS Server
A DNS server is the system that translates website names into addresses used by devices to find services on the internet. Without DNS, users would have difficulty accessing websites using easy-to-remember names.
A secure DNS server adds a layer of protection to browsing. It can block malicious domains, phishing, malware, and unwanted website categories before access to the site begins.

"Lumiun DNS is fantastic, intuitive, functional, and assertive. Everything is great! I've been using Squid and pfBlocker-NG on pfSense, and Lumiun DNS is far superior. It's like upgrading from MS-DOS to Windows or from GTA2 to GTA V, graphically speaking."
