The first thing to figure out when exploring the VPN vs Firewall question, we should note that DNS-based malware is one of the most dangerous cyber threats that are used to steal your online identity. According to a global 2019 DNS Security survey, 91% of malware use DNS services to build their cyber attacks and 82% of survey respondents had been targeted by a DNS attack during the last year. DNS Firewall, in turn, has been created to safeguard our users from such attacks.
When the technology intercepts malicious DNS response, it directs a website with this response to a walled garden and makes such a malicious network unreachable for your device. The work of DNS Firewall can also be compared with a custom house. The customs officer is responsible for preventing the importation of illegal and/or dangerous goods into the country, and DNS Firewall is responsible for preventing the importation of malware to your device.
