Get Started

The dnscry.pt resolvers can be used with any client implementing the DNSCrypt protocol without registration and free of charge. Alternatively, all resolvers support DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS.

These tutorials describe how you can start using the dnscry.pt DNS resolvers instead of your current resolvers.

Anonymized DNSCrypt

For additional privacy, dnscry.pt also supports Anonymized DNSCrypt.

With regular encrypted DNS, queries are encrypted in transit, but the resolver still receives them directly from your IP address. Anonymized DNSCrypt adds a relay between the client and the resolver. The relay can see the client IP address, but not the DNS query. The resolver can see the DNS query, but not the client IP address.

All dnscry.pt resolvers can also be used as DNSCrypt relays. This allows compatible DNSCrypt clients to separate the client address from the resolver handling the query.
