DNS Security & Content Filtering
Smart, Simple Protection for Every Device on Your Network
Content filtering keeps your network safe by blocking harmful, inappropriate, or unwanted websites before they ever reach your users. Unlike endpoint antivirus or backup tools, DNS filtering protects every device automatically—without software installs or complicated management. With CleanBrowsing, Current-Concepts delivers smart, simple protection across your entire network.

Schools & Libraries
The Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) requires K-12 schools and libraries receiving E-Rate discounts to implement technology protection measures that block harmful or obscene content for minors.
Without a simple, enforceable solution, districts risk:
Loss of E-Rate funding
Liability exposure
Unsafe online environments for students
Businesses
Businesses face daily risks from unsafe or distracting online content. Without effective content filtering, organizations are left vulnerable to online threats that compromise security and productivity.
This creates risks such as:
Cybersecurity threats such as malware, phishing, and data breeches
Lost productivity from time spent on non-work sites
Compliance challenges in industries with strict data/usage policies

Yes. DNS filtering is one important layer of defense, but it doesn’t replace antivirus or backup solutions. Think of it as part of a multi-layered security strategy: CleanBrowsing blocks bad sites at the network level, while endpoint protection like Bitdefender stops threats that may reach individual devices. Together, they provide stronger overall protection.
Absolutely. CleanBrowsing includes easy allow/deny list management, so you can quickly whitelist specific domains for testing, training, or business purposes. Changes take effect right away, giving you flexible control without complicated firewall rules.
Yes. CleanBrowsing provides the core content filtering needed for CIPA compliance, blocking obscene and harmful content for minors.
