DNS Vulnerability DetectedYour DNS resolver does not validate DNSSEC
Your DNS resolver does not validate DNSSEC. This means your DNS responses can be tampered with. Attackers could redirect you to malicious websites without any warning.
ClearDNS validates every DNS response with DNSSEC, blocks malicious domains, and keeps your browsing private.
Without ClearDNS
DNS queries visible to ISP
Ads & trackers load freely
Malware domains accessible
No content filtering
With ClearDNS
Encrypted DNS (DoH / DoT)
Ads & trackers blocked
Malware & phishing blocked
Family-safe content filters
Your DNS is not protected
DNSSEC validation failed
Your DNS resolver does not validate DNSSEC. This means your DNS responses can be tampered with. Attackers could redirect you to malicious websites without any warning.
ClearDNS validates every DNS response with DNSSEC, blocks malicious domains, and keeps your browsing private.
Your DNS queries are encrypted and routed through ClearDNS. Every DNS response is validated with DNSSEC and checked against your filtering policy before it reaches your device.
Browsers like Chrome handle DNS internally and skip DNSSEC verification on their end, which is why some tests above cannot be completed from the browser. This does not affect your protection. ClearDNS validates DNSSEC at the server level, before the response ever reaches your browser.
ClearDNS is active, but something is interfering
ClearDNS is installed and responding on your device. However, your browser, a VPN, or another network layer is redirecting some DNS traffic away from ClearDNS, causing DNSSEC validation tests to fail.
Chrome is bypassing your DNS settings
Google Chrome's built-in "Secure DNS" feature can override your system DNS configuration, including ClearDNS. This causes your queries to go through your ISP's unprotected resolver instead.
To fix this: Go to Chrome Settings → Privacy and Security → Security → set "Use secure DNS" to Off, or select "Custom" and enter your ClearDNS DoH URL. Then reload this page to verify.
Why does this matter?
Understanding DNS privacy
Every website you visit starts with a DNS query, and by default, your ISP can see all of them. That means your entire browsing history is visible to your internet provider, and potentially to anyone else on your network. A DNS leak means your queries are going to servers you didn't choose, without any encryption or protection.
ClearDNS is a private DNS filter that encrypts every query, validates responses with DNSSEC, and blocks malicious domains, ads, and trackers before they reach your device. It works at the network level, protecting every app and browser automatically.
Works on any device. Set up in under a minute. No accounts, no software to install.
