Publisher's description
From OpenDNS :OpenDNS makes the Internet experience safer, faster and smarter for you and everyone using your network. OpenDNS can identify and stop sites trying to phish (steal) your personal information or money. The OpenDNS phishing protection works with all operating systems and browsers, and complements any other security measures already in use, such as a firewall and anti-virus software. Most DNS servers on the Internet are slow. Your computer uses DNS every time you visit a website or send an email, so you want DNS to be blazing fast. Two things make DNS really fast: a big cache and a good network. OpenDNS has both.

"Basic Filtering lacks fundamental controls and security"
Pros: Filters DNS. Yippie. If you need real control for your business, purchase something stronger such as Barracuda, Websense, or iBoss filter
Cons: What about the rest of the web. did we all forget about streaming videos, chat, etc. Not a realistic solution for todays Internet admins looking for real control.
Summary: my issue is as a network engineer, you should know that opendns is fine and dandy for basic filtering. The web is much more robust. Tried this and have to say its ok to filter a five year old. But any teen will walk through this. At an office, even ... read more >>
