01 · System DNS
Filter the traffic the PC relies on.
A local resolver checks destinations against current intelligence while allowed traffic continues to the network’s configured upstream resolver.
Malicious websites
Stop dangerous destinations before they load.
SafeLayer uses local-first filtering to block malicious domains, phishing infrastructure, and known command-and-control destinations across ordinary and encrypted browser paths.

One local decision point
Ordinary system traffic and encrypted browser navigation share the same current threat intelligence.
One current blocklist
Keep every route to the web in view.
A browser can use its own encrypted DNS path and bypass a conventional system filter. SafeLayer keeps browser navigation and system DNS aligned with the same threat intelligence.
02 · Encrypted browser traffic
Avoid a Secure DNS blind spot.
Browser navigation is checked before the page loads, so the same protection applies when encrypted DNS would otherwise bypass the system resolver.
03 · Safe operation
Protect browsing without stranding the PC.
Capture-before-change safeguards, health checks, and a restore path make sure an unavailable filter does not leave the machine offline.
Protection that stays available
A block should not become a network outage.
SafeLayer uses one local decision point for its domain intelligence, while independent safeguards keep normal browsing working when a dependency becomes unavailable.
