When your computer performs any Internet transaction that uses the DNS (and most transactions do), Quad9 blocks lookups of malicious host names from an up-to-the-minute list of threats. This blocking action protects your computer, mobile device, or IoT systems against a wide range of threats such as malware, phishing, spyware, and botnets, and it can improve performance in addition to guaranteeing privacy. The Quad9 DNS service is operated by the Swiss-based Quad9 Foundation, whose mission is to provide a safer and more robust Internet for everyone. Watch our short videos on how to set up Quad9 - Windows / MacOS ▸ 670M+ Average Daily Blocks 25+ Threats Intelligence Providers 230+ Resolver Clusters in 90 countries Watch our short videos on how to set up Quad9 - Windows / MacOS ▸ PRIVACY HOW QUAD9 PROTECTS YOUR PRIVACY When your devices use Quad9 normally, no data containing your IP address is ever logged in any Quad9 system. Connections can employ encryption if your system supports it, and the entire Quad9 platform has been designed to be GDPR-compliant from the first public announcement in 2017. Read more about Quad9’s privacy ▸ WHY QUAD9 IS DEDICATED TO DATA PRIVACY Every transaction on the Internet starts with a DNS event. This name lookup reveals critically sensitive data about the person triggering that transaction. The nature of those name lookups has created a strong and dangerous motivation for commercialization of personal data from DNS recursive resolver services. Quad9 is the only large DNS resolver with a founding charter that includes privacy as a primary goal, and the Quad9 team is devoted to the concept of keeping personal data under the control of the end user. > Quad9's move to Switzerland is a welcome improvement in the world of public > resolvers. This change of domicile makes Quad9’s commitment to privacy clear: > their policies are now bound by the strength of Swiss law. We welcome you to > your new home in Europe, Quad9!” Ulrich Wisser Senior DNS Expert, The Swedish Internet Foundation > The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) of Switzerland supports the idea of > conducting Quad9’s activities in a non-profit organisation (NPO) in > Switzerland. As a neutral location, Switzerland is the premier site for such > activities. Together, as a Public Private Partnership (PPP), we can make the > internet safer and position Switzerland as a trustworthy location.” Florian Schütz Federal Cybersecurity Delegate SECURITY HOW QUAD9 BLOCKS MALWARE Quad9 routes your DNS queries through a secure network of servers around the globe. The system uses threat intelligence from more than a dozen of the industry’s leading cybersecurity companies to give a real-time perspective on what websites are safe and what sites are known to include malware or other threats. If the system detects that the site you want to reach is known to be infected, you’ll automatically be blocked from entry – keeping your data and computer safe. WHY QUAD9 PROVIDES SECURITY SERVICES For the Internet to be an effective tool, users must trust their ability to use online services without fear of theft, fraud, or misuse of their devices by criminals. Public and private network operators need protection against malicious use of infrastructure resources and attacks against their users or customers. Quad9’s mission is to improve the security and stability of the Internet to allow everyone to be less vulnerable to risks and more effective in their daily online interactions. CHECK TO SEE IF A DOMAIN IS IN THE MILLIONS OF MALICIOUS DOMAINS QUAD9 BLOCKS Enter a hostname or domain name to check if it is blocked by Quad9 Search PARTICIPATE HOW TO USE QUAD9 Quad9 can be used simply by setting the DNS server settings for your device to the addresses given in one of our service profiles. No sign-up is required, no account data needs to be given to Quad9, and there is no contract. Quad9 is free to use and collects no personal data about you. You can configure your router or wifi access point to distribute these settings, which will extend protection to all the elements on your local network including IoT devices, many of which otherwise would not have any anti-malware defenses. WHY PARTICIPATE? Quad9 is a not-for-profit organization, relying on grants and partnerships with commercial and non-commercial sources and from individuals. Your use of Quad9 may prevent a ransomware attack, prevent your bank account from being compromised, or protect your laptop from being used as part of an illicit criminal attack on others. All of these potential protections and many millions of other interventions have a direct savings result for you, your business or organization, and the companies you rely on such as banks and e-commerce firms. We hope that this understanding may inspire you to donate to Quad9, as an individual or with a corporate sponsorship.
