Surfshark adds category-based web filtering to its post-quantum Dausos protocol
Surfshark has brought its privacy-first web content blocker to the post-quantum Dausos protocol, letting you filter risky sites without giving up speed or privacy.
Surfshark has added category-based web filtering to its Dausos protocol, a proprietary VPN system designed for speed and post-quantum security. This feature, currently rolling out for macOS users on Surfshark One and One+ plans, allows households to filter content without sacrificing the protocol's performance. Dausos, meaning "paradise" in Lithuanian, is Surfshark's first in-house protocol, giving each user session a private data tunnel for speed and security.
By pairing this with category-based filtering, users can protect themselves from adult, gambling, phishing, and malware sites, among others, without the need to balance speed and safety separately. The web content blocker works by blocking sites within predefined categories, helping to shield users from the dangers of curiosity or carelessness online.
