What is Yandex DNS?

Yandex maintains a network of over 80 DNS servers that are strategically located across multiple cities and countries. By routing user queries to the closest server, Yandex DNS ensures faster website loading times, particularly in its "basic" mode. Although many websites are generally safe, some may contain malware that can infect your computer with viruses, and risks can still be associated with sites that have previously been deemed secure. Furthermore, certain pages are crafted by cybercriminals for the purpose of stealing passwords, personal information, or draining funds from mobile accounts. When users attempt to visit a website in "safe" or "family" modes, Yandex DNS effectively prevents any harmful data from being downloaded and notifies the user about potential dangers. To bolster its security measures, Yandex incorporates its own anti-virus software, which scans webpages for malware using a combination of proprietary algorithms and Sophos's signature technology. Whenever a user accesses a website, their browser requests the correct address from the DNS system, and the speed of the nearest DNS server plays a crucial role in determining how quickly the site becomes available. Hence, opting for Yandex DNS not only accelerates access to online content but also provides a vital layer of defense against various digital threats. This dual advantage makes it a compelling choice for users seeking both speed and security in their internet browsing experience.
