Lumiun DNS Retrospective 2025

Lumiun DNS2025 Retrospective: Our “Security Wrapped” in Numbers

In 2025, Lumiun DNS grew strong and proved, in practice, what secure browsing needs to be: simple to activate, easy to use, and consistent in everyday use . Each month, more companies and individuals began using Lumiun DNS as a layer of protection and control, without complications and without relying on guesswork.

And the best part is that you can see this with very clear data: growth in the user base, increased usage, billions of security decisions applied automatically, and stability even on peak days .

The numbers that summarize 2025

  • +63% growth in new accounts (2025 vs 2024)

    • Throughout 2025, Lumiun DNS registered over 10,000 new accounts created , compared to just over 6,500 the previous year , showing consistent growth in the adoption of the solution throughout the year.

  • +96% growth in new registered locations (2025 vs 2024)

  • Approximately 49.8 billion DNS queries processed in 2025.

  • Approximately 3.29 billion blocked accesses in 2025 ( approximately 6.6% of traffic )

    • In practice, this means that approximately 1 in 15 DNS queries were blocked by security, productivity, or protection policies before any impact on the user or the network.

  • Peak of the year: 239.3 million consultations in a single day.

  • Product evolution in 2025: 171 fixes , 175 updates , and 22 new features.

If you work in IT, this means one very straightforward thing: Lumiun Lumiun DNS scaled, delivered value, and evolved the product as its user base grew .

Security that shows up where it matters most: what was blocked

The most important statistic for 2025 is simple and straightforward: more than 3.2 billion attempts were blocked before becoming a real problem on networks protected by Lumiun DNS .

In practice, this means that approximately 6.6% of all DNS queries made in 2025 were blocked due to security, productivity, or protection policies.

In other words, approximately 1 in 15 access attempts should not be successful.

What does this reveal about the real state of social networks?

When we analyze the type of blocking, it becomes clear that the risk lies not only in "obvious threats," but in the everyday use of the internet:

Ads and trackers

They totaled hundreds of millions of blocks throughout the year , reducing exposure to trackers, invasive scripts, and attack surfaces that go unnoticed in everyday life.

App stores and app installation

Blocking this type of access appears consistently, showing a clear pattern: uncontrolled facilities continue to be one of the main entry points for risks and incidents .

Social networks and distractions

Social media platforms account for a significant portion of the blocks, reinforcing the idea that browsing control is also about productivity , not just security.

Harmful websites (basic and advanced protection)

Basic and advanced protection lists worked continuously, blocking access associated with suspicious behavior, malicious domains, and risk patterns , even before any alert or incident.

Adult content

Beyond compliance and internal policy aspects, this type of blocking occurred in significant volumes throughout the year , especially in corporate and educational environments.

Games and betting

The growth of this type of access reinforces a known scenario: misuse of network resources during productive hours , something that DNS can mitigate in a simple and centralized way.

Attempts to circumvent obstacles (the "technical workaround")

One of the most relevant data points from 2025 was the volume of blocks related to attempts to bypass filters , such as alternative access methods, proxies, or intermediary services.

This behavior makes it clear that blocking the final control point is not enough; it is also necessary to act on the pathways used to escape control.

The real impact of these numbers

These billions of blocks don't just represent "blocked websites." They signify:

  • less exposed attack surface

  • Less noise for IT teams to investigate

  • Fewer incidents caused by avoidable behaviors

  • more predictability and control over network usage

In 2025, Lumiun DNS demonstrated that effective security is that which acts before the problem exists , automatically, continuously, and invisibly to those using the network correctly.

Increased usage: more people using it and more networks being protected

It wasn't just "more accounts." What grew significantly was the application of Lumiun DNS in more environments: more locations, more network points, and more real-world scenarios (branches, schools, common areas, reception areas, guest networks, etc.).

This type of growth shows something important: the product doesn't stay stuck in the pilot testing phase. It becomes standard practice.

Performance and reliability: when the network needs it most, DNS cannot fail

In addition to growth, 2025 had days with huge traffic spikes . And this matters because DNS is the heart of browsing: if it fails, the user doesn't just "get slow," they simply stop working .

Lumiun Lumiun DNS sustained this volume and maintained its core proposition: protection + control, without friction.

What users said in 2025 (real feedback)

The best part of "wrapped" is hearing from those who use it:

  • Easy/very easy installation: ~89,5%

  • Quick/very quick installation: ~88,7%

  • User-friendly/very user-friendly interface: ~96,8%

  • Helpful/very helpful support: ~94.8% (based on feedback)

This confirms the right direction: security that works can't be complicated .

And we also received a very clear message from the market: reports .

Even with a positive assessment, it was the theme that most often emerged as an opportunity: more perspectives, more detail, and more formats for everyday use (including exports).

What's coming next: 2026 focused on what generates the most value

If 2025 was about growth and consolidation, 2026 has a very clear path ahead:

  1. Even smarter reports (more useful insights for IT and management)

  2. Full integration with Active Directory

  3. New agents for different operating systems
  4. Faster activation and adoption (less setup, more results)

The idea is simple: to transform Lumiun DNS into the standard layer of security and browsing control for company networks .
