End point protection

Secure remote browsing for users everywhere. Continuous malware, phishing, and unwanted content protection even on mobile data and Wi-Fi

Why Endpoint Protection is critical for today’s distributed workforce?

The problem

With hybrid work, remote access, and mobile connectivity now the norm, traditional perimeter-only security leaves gaps. Devices that are off-network no longer benefit from cloud or on-site filters, exposing users and organizations to malware, phishing, smishing, ransomware, data theft, and undesired or harmful content. FlashStart solves this by delivering DNS-based protection directly on the device through the ClientShield app. This ensures the same level of protection that applies to on-network browsing is also active when users are remote. Once ClientShield is installed on a device, it creates a secure DNS tunnel that protects DNS requests from risky domains and content categories, filtering threats before they reach the device. The app can be centrally managed through the same admin interface used for cloud filters, and even automatically disables itself when the device connects back to a protected internal network.

    The End Point Protection: the best solution

    FlashStart End-Point Protection works by installing the ClientShield application on user devices that need protection. Once active, ClientShield establishes a secure DNS overlay that filters requests for malicious or inappropriate domains before any connection is completed.

    With endpoint protection that follows the user anywhere, security no longer depends on network location — it travels with the device.

    Because it operates at the DNS layer, no additional VPN-like tunnel or heavy network configuration is required. The lightweight agent works even on slow connections, filtering only DNS traffic and leaving other data paths unaffected. ClientShield provides the same robust protection that the company’s cloud filter delivers — including malware prevention, content control, and reputation-based blocking — and is fully manageable through the FlashStart administrative dashboard.

    FAQs

    What is End-Point Protection?

    It’s a DNS-based security feature delivered through the FlashStart ClientShield app that protects remote and roaming devices from malware, phishing, smishing, ransomware, data theft, and unwanted content.

    Can End-Point Protection be centrally managed?

    Yes — ClientShield integrates with the FlashStart administrative interface, enabling unified policy management and central monitoring for all protected endpoints.

    How does ClientShield protect devices off-network?

    Once installed, the app creates a secure DNS tunnel that filters DNS requests and blocks malicious or undesired domains before any content reaches the device.

    Is the protection the same as the cloud filter?

    Yes — ClientShield delivers the same DNS filtering logic and threat prevention found in the cloud-based FlashStart filter.

    Will it disable when the user is on a protected corporate network?

    Yes — ClientShield can automatically switch off when the device connects to a network that already has FlashStart cloud filtering, deferring to internal security rules.
