MonoDefense - Advanced Threat Protection

Big companies and governments are obvious targets for cybercriminals and malware attacks. American business losses exceed half a billion dollars every year facing advanced data threats. But it is important to remember that cybercrimes can hit anyone online and an ordinary user can have serious data losses as well. The phrase 'Prevention is better than cure' is often attributed to the Dutch philosopher Desiderius Erasmus in the 1500s. Centuries pass but the proverb hasn’t lost its sense.

DNS Firewall is an advanced tool to prevent malware attacks and fraud losses. Hackers and cybercriminals have become more skilled and zealous today, so virus and threat protection software has to develop as well. MonoDefense offers an advanced solution to block malware attacks and protect your device. DNS Firewall intercepts DNS resolution for known-malicious websites and safeguards your data from viruses and threats.

What Is Malware And How to Prevent Its Attacks

Malicious software is used by criminals to block computer operations, cause massive data leakage, and get access to sensitive data. "Malware" is any kind of software designed to attack and harm a computer. It can often be disguised as a popular TV show, album, game, or program. When you want to download any kind of data, you should use an additional app to scan whether the source is reliable or not. Malware attacks can have various forms. Go on reading to learn more about protection from them.

Trojans

A trojan is a type of malware threat that can get into your device on the back of other software. When the trojan virus is inside your computer or mobile phone, it can give access to your sensitive data to third parties or capture your screen or keystrokes. The user has to be especially careful logging in to banking apps or inputting his PIN. A fraudster can steal your bank credentials or other important data and cause a terrible headache by blocking your card or account.

Trojans are usually passive and hard to detect. DNS Firewall can offer you advanced threat protection blocking malware domains before your device gets infected. If you are 100% sure that a certain domain is not dangerous you can delete it from the blocklist inside the app. DNS Firewall settings are flexible enough to manage all the dangerous websites and domains to avoid and prevent infection threats.

Ransomware

Ransomware is a popular way of fraud. A cybercriminal gets access to your device or system, encrypts your data, and demands a fee to unlock it. Such a type of fraud can cause the loss of all your data, as the decryption key belongs exclusively to the fraudster. Without the decryption code, it is very unlikely that you will be able to access your files again. But there is no guarantee that hackers will restore your files after the ransom is paid. They can easily make you double trouble, sharing stolen data on the dark web.

DNS Firewall is a perfect tool to block ransomware attacks. Our solution scans the traffic, examining it for potential ransomware, fraud, and malware threats. In combination with VPN Unlimited, DNS Firewall represents a bulletproof network with secure and stable access.
