Protection at the network layer
Most ad and malware blockers are browser extensions — they only protect one browser on one device, and malware that lives outside the browser walks right past them. Vortex works differently. It filters DNS requests across the whole Veilock network, so a malicious or ad-serving domain is blocked for every device on your connection: phones, TVs, consoles and IoT gadgets included.
What Vortex blocks
Vortex maintains category-based filtering so you can cut out whole classes of unwanted traffic at once. That means faster page loads, less tracking, lower data use, and a meaningfully smaller attack surface.
- Advertisements and analytics trackers
- Malware, ransomware and spyware domains
- Coinmining scripts that hijack your CPU
- Optional adult/mature content filtering for families
- Applies to every device on your Veilock connection
Included with Epsilon and Purple Veil
Vortex ad and malware blocking comes with the Epsilon plan, and Purple Veil adds a fully custom content filter on top so you can tailor exactly what's allowed on your network. Both are powered by Vortex and rolling out now.
