Ten years ago today, DNSFilter was born from a simple but powerful idea.
Today, we're humbled to be trusted by over 43,000 organizations around the globe. This milestone is a testament to the relentless innovation of our team, the incredible trust of our customers, and the collaborative spirit of our partners.
Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our story, and to our founders Ken Carnesi and Brian Gillis.
As we celebrate the last 10 years of growth and protection, we can confidently say—we're just getting started.
Here's to the next ten! 💫

AI can’t secure what it can’t see.
MCP servers are changing how AI connects to security data. DNSFilter’s Security MCP Server brings DNS security into AI workflows, helping teams investigate threats faster.

Executives and security teams are looking at two different pictures of AI risk.
New research from DNSFilter reveals a disconnect across cyber resilience, incident reporting, AI adoption and security priorities.
The challenge isn’t just having the right policies or more budget. It’s having visibility into what’s actually happening across your organization.
What are you not seeing?

75% of executives believe their organization could maintain critical operations through a 72-hour cyberattack.
Fewer than half of the practitioners responsible for doing it agree.
DNSFilter and @censuswide surveyed 400 IT and cybersecurity professionals across the US and Canada, uncovering gaps in cyber resilience, shadow AI, and AI visibility.
Join us on September 30 at 10am ET to unpack the findings, see a live demo, and test your own AI visibility against the data.

73.9% of executives think they'd survive a 72-hour cyberattack. Only 47.5% of IT managers agree.
Our new AI Visibility Survey reveals a critical blind spot in AI security:
🔵 45.8% of IT teams say they've had unreported incidents
🟡 Only 17.4% of executives know that's happening
🔴 40% have already been hit by shadow AI incidents
Money's flowing to governance. Practitioners need detection and response tools.

If DNS was a car part – what would it be? 🚗
We put that question to our own Field CTO, TK Keanini, on the show floor at #BlackHat2026, and his answer turned into one of our favorite conversations of the week.
TK broke down building a security stack the same way you'd build a car, piece by piece, and made the case for why defending against Shadow AI and agentic attacks has to be part of the build from the start.
Watch the full conversation to see where DNS lands in TK's build and hear his take on what's next for AI-driven threats. 👀

#BlackHat2026 #DNSFilter #ShadowAI #ThreatIntelligence
On this episode of dnsUNFILTERED, host Mikey Pruitt sits down with Wes Spencer, co-founder of Empath and a self-described "recovering cybersecurity guy," to talk about how AI is reshaping the MSP business model from the ground up.
🔺 Why tool-selling is out and business consulting is in
🔺 How AI is commoditizing traditional managed services, and what to do about it
🔺 Why shadow AI is already inside your clients' businesses, and how to turn it into an opportunity
The MSPs who figure this out first will set the pace for everyone else. 💡

We just left Mandalay Bay. We're headed right back. 🎰
This time, it's for Fal.Con 2026.
At Black Hat, the same question kept coming up at our booth: "How do I see and control this in my environment today?" Hybrid work visibility. Shadow AI blind spots. Tools that were never built to see any of it. 👀
We're bringing those conversations to Fal.Con 2026, August 31 to September 3, as a proud sponsor. Find us at Booth 1140. 🔺
