WASHINGTON, September 19, 2024
– DNSFilter, a leader in DNS-layer security, is excited to announce its new integration with Rewst, an automation platform tailored for managed service providers (MSPs). This integration streamlines key processes such as DNS policy management and incident resolution, providing significant time savings and enhanced operational efficiency for MSPs.

The DNSFilter and Rewst integration allows MSPs to automate the management of DNS filtering policies and streamline the resolution of support tickets related to blocked domains. By automating these processes, MSPs can reduce their reliance on manual interventions, leading to improved security and more scalable operations.

Key benefits of the integration include:

  • Granular DNS policy management: Allows MSPs to manage policy updates (e.g., whitelisting domains) without giving full administrative access to technicians.

  • Onboarding and offboarding automation: Streamlines the creation and removal of customer organizations, reducing delays and manual workloads.

  • Reduced incident ticket volume: Automatically processes website unblock requests, leading to an 80%+ reduction in escalated support tickets.

  • Customizable security controls: Enhances control over what technicians can modify, minimizing the risk of accidental or unauthorized changes to DNS policies.

"With Rewst’s DNSFilter integration, we’re automating key workflows across multiple tools, ensuring consistency and eliminating errors in the onboarding and offboarding process. By automating repetitive steps we’re reducing the risk of mistakes and saving significant time, which improves the accuracy and speed of client onboarding. The streamlined approach lets us focus on delivering value to our clients rather than manually managing tasks." said Todd Smith, CTO at Centre Technologies.

The integration is now available to all DNSFilter customers with a subscription to Rewst, providing them with powerful automation capabilities that simplify security management and boost productivity.

The episode is scheduled to go live on Monday, September 30 and is hosted by Mikey Pruitt, DNSFilter’s Partner Evangelist. Episodes are available on YouTube.
