Malware poses a growing threat to businesses and individuals. Every day, ransomware, phishing, and viruses compromise the security of millions of devices. According to the latest statistics, 90% of businesses are vulnerable to a cyberattack, and ransomware payments reached $20 billion in 2023. Protecting your network is no longer an option—it’s a necessity.

Protection and Prevention
In such a complex environment, traditional perimeter security systems and antivirus software alone are no longer sufficient. Malicious URLs change and evolve extremely quickly, making malware increasingly difficult to detect. Furthermore, managing a growing number of connected devices—which are often out of date or poorly protected—poses an additional challenge.
To address these threats, it is necessary to implement cybersecurity solutions capable of taking a proactive approach.
Advanced threat intelligence systems and proactive protection mechanisms must be able to block access to dangerous sources on the web, ensuring effective and adaptive protection for the entire IT ecosystem.

How does Flashstart protect against ransomware?

Configuring the FlashStart filter is quick and easy: a basic installation on a corporate network generally takes just a few minutes, setting up the FlashStart DNS servers on routers or devices.

Yes — FlashStart provides detailed reports on threats and blocked content via its dashboard: you can view statistics and history on what has been filtered (including malware and other cyber threats), by category, by time interval, by blocked domains and dangerous requests, with historical data going back several months and the option to export or schedule automatic report delivery.

Can I use Flashstart on mobile devices?
Yes — FlashStart can also be used on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets: installing the ClientShield app on Android or iOS activates secure DNS filtering, which extends FlashStart’s cloud protection even when devices are outside the corporate network (e.g., using a mobile network or public Wi-Fi) and allows the same network security policies (blocking malware, ransomware, dangerous content, etc.) to be applied directly to the device.
