Frequently asked questions
Will internet security slow down my connection?
Minimal impact. Modern security solutions are optimized for performance. You’ll notice improved speed from ad-blocking and reduced tracking.
Can you set up parental controls without kids knowing?
Yes and no. Controls can be configured discretely, but we recommend age-appropriate transparency for better family digital health.
Do I need a VPN at home?
Not essential but recommended for privacy from ISPs, accessing geo-restricted content, and protecting smart home devices from tracking.
Will secure DNS break any websites?
Rarely. If a legitimate site is blocked, we can whitelist it. Most blocks are malicious sites you don’t want to visit anyway.
Can you secure my child’s phone and tablet too?
Absolutely. We configure security and parental controls across all family devices—computers, phones, tablets, and game consoles.
What’s the difference between free and paid VPNs?
Free VPNs often sell your data, have slow speeds, and limited servers. Paid VPNs offer better privacy, speed, and security. We recommend reputable paid services.
How often should internet security be reviewed?
Every 6-12 months, or after major changes like new devices, family members, or security incidents. Quarterly reviews ideal for businesses.
