Abstract
Systems and techniques for website filtering using bifurcated domain name system are described herein. A domain name system (DNS) request may be received. An internet address for a DNS service of an internet service provider (ISP) and an internet address for a DNS service provider external to the ISP may be determined. The ISP may provide external network services to the services gateway. The DNS service provider may maintain a website filtering list. The DNS request may be forwarded to the internet address for the DNS service of the ISP and the internet address of the DNS service provider external to the ISP. A first response and a second response to the DNS request may be received from the respective DNS services. A DNS request response may be transmitted to a client computing device connected to an internal network of the services gateway upon receipt of the first and second responses.
