Crayon welcomes DNSFilter to its cybersecurity solutions portfolio

(Asia Pacific Region) — Crayon, a global leader in IT services and innovation, today announced the addition of cloud-based DNS security platform provider, DNSFilter, to its cybersecurity solutions portfolio.

“With cyber threats on the rise, it is more important than ever for organisations to have access to reliable and effective security solutions,” said Warren Nolan, SVP Channel and Strategy of Crayon. “We are excited to welcome DNSFilter to our vendor portfolio and collaborate with them to offer best-in-class DNS security solutions to our partners.”

DNS is the protocol that translates domain names (such as google.com) into IP addresses that computers use to communicate with each other. It is often targeted by cybercriminals seeking to redirect users to malicious websites or steal credentials and financial data. DNS protection adds an extra layer of security for employees on both corporate and home networks by blocking access to harmful websites and filtering out unwanted content. It is vital in maintaining the security, privacy, and availability of the internet’s infrastructure, ensuring safe access to online services. DNSFilter provides protective DNS to organisations globally, blocking threats earlier than other similar solutions on the market. With an intuitive dashboard, simple deployment, and advanced machine learning, the platform enables IT teams to easily launch and manage protective DNS.

Created with MSPs in mind, DNSFilter offers a broad range of features such as white labelling, one-click application blocking (AppAware) and advanced reporting, with multiple deployment options for a myriad of IT environments.

“We are proud to partner with Crayon to extend our protective DNS solution across Asia Pacific,” said Ken Carnesi, CEO and co-founder of DNSFilter. “As a global organisation, it makes sense for us to partner with another large-scale organisation that is working to empower resellers, MSPs, and ISVs through best-in-class cloud services.”

DNSFilter joins a growing number of cybersecurity vendors now distributed by Crayon across the Asia Pacific. Visit the DNSFilter page for more detail on the solutions now available to Crayon’s partner community apac.crayonchannel.com/vendors/dnsfilter.
