OpenDNS is the world’s largest Internet-wide security network. Founded in 2005, the company has evolved from a provider of fast, reliable DNS services into a leading network and mobile security innovator that protects more than two percent of the Internet’s active users every day.
In 2012, OpenDNS launched Umbrella, a new line of cloud-delivered security services that extend the protection of core network security infrastructure to nomadic workers that roam on and off the corporate network. Umbrella delivers a secure connection from any device, preventing contact with malware, phishing, botnets and advanced attacks, regardless of application, protocol or port.
Unlike Web filtering, firewall and Web gateway appliances and software, Umbrella is built for today’s world of ubiquitous connectivity. It is easy to deploy and manage, with no hardware to install or software maintain, no need to reconfigure networks and no new latency. Taking advantage of OpenDNS’s predictive intelligence, Umbrella uses machine learning to automate protection against threats before an organization is attacked.
OpenDNS enables the world to connect with confidence on any device, anywhere, at any time.
We do this by creating powerful security solutions that are easy to deploy and simple to manage.
We are a company of engineers and technologists passionate about delivering a better Internet. At OpenDNS, we seek bright, committed team members who are excited about contributing to a company that has a vibrant and unique culture.

We work on core Internet protocols and improve the Internet for millions of people around the world. OpenDNS provides a cloud-delivered network security service that automates protection for any device, anywhere, against advanced attacks before they can cause damage. Complementing our unique delivery model for cyber-security, we have a ‘satellite view’ of the Internet and use big data analysis techniques with machine learning to automate cyber protection. With these capabilities we can predict and prevent emergent threats before they happen. Our OpenDNS Global Network is the world’s largest Internet security network, protecting more than 50 million daily active users across our 23 globally distributed data centers.
OpenDNS is a place where the best ideas are quickly transformed into products, features, campaigns, and company-wide practices, so it won’t be long before you witness the results of your hard work.
