GoGuardian DNS

What GoGuardian DNS is

GoGuardian DNS is an on-premises DNS solution for protecting devices across a school network. Administrators can create filtering rules for groups such as staff, students and guests, with custom IP ranges to define those groups. The dashboard displays traffic trends over time by network, subnet and category. CNAME reporting can clarify why an alias domain triggered a policy. Troubleshooting logs for agent-filtered users can include names, email addresses and internal IP addresses; an organization-level setting lets those users bypass on-premises filtering to avoid policy conflicts. The filter covers BYOD, guest and unmanaged devices without requiring extensions or software on each one. Administrators manage DNS protection in the GoGuardian Admin dashboard, alongside filtering policies and reporting. The product is positioned for K-12 schools and districts managing mixed-device environments, and supports Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows. GoGuardian says the solution can achieve CIPA compliance without hardware. Pricing is customized and available on request.
