Abstract

Abstract: ShieldedLink Application is a robust DNS resolver and firewall solution designed to prioritize speed, security, privacy, and configurability. Operating across over 300 global locations within Cloudflare's data centers, it offers end-to-end median latency as low as 30ms, ensuring swift resolution of domain names to IP addresses. Security is ensured through exclusive response over TLS, safeguarding user data from potential surveillance and DNS manipulation attacks. Each user benefits from a dedicated endpoint, guaranteeing privacy akin to a personalized resolver setup. Transparency is facilitated with optional peruser logs for analytics and reporting. Additionally, users enjoy configurability through preset blocklists, empowering them to define firewall rules based on their preferences. Complemented by the ShieldedLink Application companion app for Android, users can further enhance their security by implementing granular app blocking rules, including blocking by category, app activity, or device status.
