DNSFilter has announced the launch of CyberSight, a powerful new behavioral analytics and intelligence capability designed to expand the scope of its platform beyond traditional DNS filtering. With this addition, DNSFilter is enabling organizations to gain deeper visibility into user activity across devices, applications, and web traffic helping security teams better understand not just what gets blocked, but what actually happens across their networks.

As modern organizations increasingly rely on SaaS ecosystems often using over 100 applications security teams are facing a growing visibility gap. Traditional DNS filtering has been effective at stopping known threats, but it only shows what has been blocked, leaving critical blind spots around user behavior, application usage, and emerging risks. This lack of insight makes it difficult for teams to investigate incidents, detect shadow IT, and proactively manage SaaS-related threats.

CyberSight addresses this challenge by introducing a behavioral analytics layer that provides a comprehensive view of user activity. Fully integrated into DNSFilter’s Pro and Enterprise tiers, the solution delivers clear, contextual insights into what users are doing online, when actions occur, and how long interactions last. By transforming raw activity data into meaningful, easy-to-understand intelligence, CyberSight allows organizations to move from reactive security measures to a more proactive, risk-aware approach.

According to DNSFilter CEO Ken Carnesi, while DNS filtering has long been effective at blocking threats, modern security teams require deeper visibility into activity that never triggers a block. CyberSight fills that gap by uncovering shadow IT usage, providing context around user behavior, and enabling faster, more informed incident response.

Early users are already seeing tangible benefits. Thomas Connolly, IT Manager at Crescent Crown, noted that CyberSight provides valuable insight into user behavior patterns throughout the workday. When combined with DNSFilter’s protective DNS capabilities, it creates a layered defense strategy that not only identifies risky behavior but also allows teams to respond more quickly and effectively.

Unlike traditional solutions that focus only on blocked requests, CyberSight captures a broader range of user interactions, including clicks, application usage, full URLs, and even direct IP access. It intelligently filters out background system noise, presenting security teams with clear behavioral timelines and actionable insights that improve decision-making and operational efficiency.

With this enhanced visibility, organizations can accelerate incident investigations, identify unauthorized or risky SaaS applications, and optimize software spending by eliminating redundant or unused tools. As cybersecurity continues to evolve alongside increasingly complex digital environments, solutions like CyberSight represent a shift toward more intelligent, context-driven security operations.

From a broader perspective, launches like this also play a crucial role in how cybersecurity brands build authority and visibility in today’s AI-driven discovery landscape. Consistent, high-quality media coverage helps shape how platforms and innovations are understood and surfaced by AI systems, making strategic PR an essential component of long-term brand positioning .
