Quad9

Quad9 is a public DNS resolver that blocks access to malware infected websites.[1][2] The service protects privacy by not logging the IP address of users who set their computers to send queries to it.[3][4]

CleanerDNS, Inc., a California non-profit corporation, operates Quad9. CleanerDNS is supported by IBM, Packet Clearing House (PCH), Global Cyber Alliance (GCA), other cyber-security organizations, and private donations.[5]

Quad9's primary DNS service is accessible via the IP addresses for IPv4: 9.9.9.9 and 149.112.112.112, and IPv6: 2620:fe::fe and 2620:fe::fe:9. This service supports blocklist, DNS encryption, and DNSSEC.[9]

Quad9's alternative DNS service that supports limited features is accessible on IPv4: 9.9.9.10 and 149.112.112.10, and IPv6: 2620:fe::10 and 2620:fe::fe:10. This service only supports DNS encryption.[9]

Quad9's identical DNS service that supports ECS is accessible on IPv4: 9.9.9.11 and 149.112.112.11, and IPv6: 2620:fe::11 and 2620:fe::fe:11. This service supports blocklist, DNS encryption, DNSSEC, and ECS.[9]

Privacy

No personally-identifiable information is collected by the Quad9 system. IP addresses of end users are not stored to disk or distributed outside of the equipment answering the query in the local data center. Quad9 is a not-for-profit organization with the core charter to provide secure, fast, private DNS. Therefore there are no secondary revenue streams for personally-identifiable data.[11]
