developers like to use plenty of abbreviations in our field when discussing computer and network topics—sometimes so extensively that the original term disappears from our vocabulary altogether. While we find this language perfectly understandable, it often isn’t suitable for everyday use once we leave the developer office, especially when we want to explain exactly what we did in our latest update. Today we want to do better and shed some light on how differently humans and machines read website addresses: \u003Cem>domains\u003C\u002Fem> and \u003Cem>IP addresses\u003C\u002Fem>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>DN… what?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>DNS stands for \u003Cem>Domain Name Service\u003C\u002Fem>. This service works invisibly in the background, yet it is a key component of the internet and how we use it every day. When we visit a website, we use an address that is easy for us to read and remember, such as www.example.com. For this address to become readable for machines, it must be translated into a numeric Internet Protocol, or IP, address such as 203.0.113.51. Before the browser can retrieve a webpage’s content, this translation of the domain name must take place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is exactly where our newest feature comes in, which we’re excited to introduce today: our brand-new \u003Cstrong>DNS-based web filter\u003C\u002Fstrong>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>Hold on… is something wrong with the content filter?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>Our current content filter is based on a \u003Cem>transparent HTTP proxy\u003C\u002Fem>. It works without issue for unencrypted traffic. Recently, however, as you’ve probably noticed, more and more websites are using the secure version of the \u003Cem>Hyper Text Transfer Protocol\u003C\u002Fem>, \u003Cem>HTTPS\u003C\u002Fem>. This means that all communication between the browser and the web server is encrypted via the \u003Cem>TLS protocol\u003C\u002Fem>. As a result, the HTTP proxy can no longer search for unwanted content and therefore cannot block it either—this is where our new DNS filter comes to the rescue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at the right time, too: in addition to the general trend toward greater security on the web, the \u003Cem>Let’s Encrypt\u003C\u002Fem> initiative—which provides free \u003Cstrong>SSL\u002FTLS certificates\u003C\u002Fstrong>—is also driving more and more sites to switch to HTTPS. \u003Cem>Let’s Encrypt\u003C\u002Fem> has already issued millions of certificates, and as of today (01\u002F2018), 48 million of them are already active online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our chart shows the percentage of encrypted pages (Firefox users). The blue line represents all users and currently stands at around 70%. A significant share of this comes from leading platforms such as Google, Facebook, and others, which are fully encrypted\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fdiv>\n\u003C\u002Fdiv>\n\u003C\u002Fdiv>\n\u003C\u002Fdiv>\n",{"name":487,"id":488,"fields":489},"acf\u002Fmedia","acf\u002Fmedia_6af3fe8208c37",{"width":490,"image":491},12,{"id":492,"title":493,"filename":494,"filesize":495,"url":496,"link":497,"alt":498,"author":499,"description":11,"caption":11,"name":493,"status":500,"uploaded_to":501,"date":502,"modified":502,"mime_type":503,"type":504,"subtype":505,"width":506,"height":507,"orientation":508,"sizes":509},9029,"firefox_telemetrie","firefox_telemetrie.jpg",44276,"https:\u002F\u002Fcms2.iacbox.com\u002Fdocuments\u002Ffirefox_telemetrie.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fcms2.iacbox.com\u002Fen\u002Fblog\u002Fnetzwerk-grundlagen\u002Ffirefox_telemetrie\u002F","Diagramm verschlüsselter Seiten Stand 2018","2","inherit",9028,"2026-09-30 13:23:53","image\u002Fjpeg","image","jpeg",934,432,"landscape",{"thumbnail":496,"thumbnail-width":510,"thumbnail-height":511,"medium":512,"medium-width":513,"medium-height":514,"medium_large":515,"medium_large-width":516,"medium_large-height":517,"large":496,"large-width":506,"large-height":507,"1536x1536":496,"1536x1536-width":506,"1536x1536-height":507,"2048x2048":496,"2048x2048-width":506,"2048x2048-height":507,"2600x2600":496,"2600x2600-width":506,"2600x2600-height":507},150,69,"https:\u002F\u002Fcms2.iacbox.com\u002Fdocuments\u002Ffirefox_telemetrie-300x139.jpg",300,139,"https:\u002F\u002Fcms2.iacbox.com\u002Fdocuments\u002Ffirefox_telemetrie-768x355.jpg",768,355,{"name":481,"id":519,"fields":520},"acf\u002Fwysiwyg_6af3fe820a1de",{"variant":484,"border":468,"wysiwyg":521},"\u003Ch2>Great, can I start using the DNS filter right away?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>This new feature is available on any current IACBOX running version 17.2, provided the system has at least 4GB of memory.

With a hundred, it dominates everyday operations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>A Pattern Repeating Across Industries\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>In recent years, we have encountered this pattern time and again across numerous discussions with partners and customers—regardless of whether they operate in managed services, education, or hospitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A municipal data center manages approximately 50 schools. Each school requires its own user management, custom settings, and the ability to operate autonomously. At the same time, security policies must be enforced centrally, and visibility across all sites must be maintained. A typical case, not an isolated one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hotel group faces a similar challenge. Each hotel needs to operate autonomously without sacrificing centralized standards and shared management.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Managed service providers experience the exact same trend, only in an intensified form. Those managing ten customers know every configuration in detail and calculate their overhead per customer accordingly. When that same provider grows to fifty customers, it is not just the number of installations that increases, but also update cycles, support tickets, and escalation paths. The original calculation per customer no longer holds up: revenue grows linearly, while internal overhead scales faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is precisely at this point that margins begin to shrink for many providers, even as the business appears to grow from the outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The industries differ. The pattern remains the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>Growth Changes the Operating Model\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>In response, many organizations invest in more powerful infrastructure, new features, or additional staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Far less often is it questioned whether the operating model itself still fits the organization’s scale. This is where the primary bottleneck typically emerges: when every new customer adds administrative overhead, it is not just the business that grows—complexity increases as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiring more staff may alleviate this bottleneck in the short term. In the long run, however, what scales most is administrative overhead, not the business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>Why Multi-Tenant Is Moving Into Focus\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>As organizations expand, a fundamental question arises with increasing urgency: does every organization really need to operate its own management platform? Or is there a more efficient way to manage many segregated organizations centrally without compromising their autonomy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is precisely why Multi-Tenant is gaining importance—not as a new buzzword or short-lived trend, but as an answer to operational requirements driven by the growth of modern IT organizations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For managed service providers, internet service providers, hotel groups, educational institutions, and multi-site enterprises, Multi-Tenant is increasingly becoming a strategic decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, the crucial question is no longer whether Multi-Tenant makes sense. It is: at what scale does the traditional operating model cease to support growth and instead become the limiting factor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch2>IACBOX Multi-Tenant Is in Its Final Stages\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>It is precisely to address these requirements that we are currently developing IACBOX Multi-Tenant. It will allow multiple segregated customers, sites, or organizations to be managed centrally via a single platform—without sacrificing their autonomy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Development is already in its final stages.
