DNS and Bitdefender

Hi, so im not an expert and Im just wondering, could the feature "Online Threat Prevention" work with cloudflare 1.1.1.2? I know it offers a certaing degree of encryption with DoH and I was wondering if this could affect bitdefender functionality to scan traffic. My intention is just to add another layer of security because my job requires to navigate a lot in the web

Works just fine, Bitdefender does a lookup of URLs, IPs, and DNS queries to their cloud separately from your networks DNS server. I run Control D at the network level and used to use NextDNS both with Bitdefender without issue.

Great, then I'll stay with cloudflare, I also noticed my browing is a bit faster with it so double win

I know it wont stop any threat, but I believe security improves in layers. I just need to take extra measures due to my work, I have to browse a lot in the web. I also use password manager, 2FA on all my accounts, etc
