Germany· Web Hosting and Cloud Computing
Needs review
Shortlist when you want an unfiltered, German-operated public resolver with DoT/DoH and optional city-pinned endpoints. Skip when you need malware blocking, a signed DPA or SLA on the free pool, or a guarantee that queries never leave the EU. Consider Quad9 for threat blocking or run your own recursive resolver when residency must be yours.
Germany· Web Hosting and Cloud Computing
Needs review
Shortlist Myra CDN when you need a German-operated Anycast edge with DDoS/WAF and a written Germany-only TLS termination option for KRITIS, banking, or public-sector sites. Skip it when you need Cloudflare-scale self-serve PoPs, Workers-class edge compute, or a free global cache. Consider Hetzner, IONOS, or OVHcloud when you only need EU origin hosting, not a certified WAAP edge.

Memorable dual-stack public resolvers
Classic DNS on UDP/TCP 53 at 185.222.222.222 and 45.11.45.11, plus IPv6 2a09:: and 2a11:: (full form published for older stacks). Dual-stack is first-class. There is no account and no client app. Benefit: routers and homelabs can be pointed at addresses people can actually remember. Limit: this is a shared public pool, not a dedicated recursive server.
DoT, DoH, and DoH over HTTP/3
Encrypted DNS over TLS on hostname dot.sb port 853, and DoH at https://doh.dns.sb/dns-query (aliases doh.sb and dns.sb, plus raw IP URLs). The FAQ states DoH supports HTTP/3 (QUIC) and that native DNS-over-QUIC (RFC 9250) is not offered yet. Benefit: OS Private DNS, browsers, and Unbound can encrypt the stub-to-resolver hop. Limit: plaintext port 53 remains available and is still visible to the local network.
City-pinned unicast DoH endpoints
Besides global anycast, the DoH page lists per-city URLs such as de-dus, de-fra, nl-ams, uk-lon, ee-tll, and several non-EU cities. Hosting providers are named per row (mostly xTom, plus HostVenom, DigitalOcean, Amazon AWS, Servers.com, Vultr, Misaka). Benefit: an admin can pin the resolver hop to a chosen metro. Limit: anycast IPs still land on the nearest global node, including US cities, unless you pin unicast.
Claimed no-logs resolver with DNSSEC and no ECS
Privacy policy and FAQ say query names, client IPs, and timestamps are not stored, EDNS Client Subnet is off, query name minimisation (RFC 7816) is on, and the resolver validates DNSSEC. Benefit: less data handed to authoritative servers and, if the claim holds, nothing to disclose. Limit: the software stack is undisclosed and no independent no-logs audit was found.
Unfiltered recursion (legal caveats reserved)
FAQ: no content filtering or blocking; users keep control. A separate FAQ bullet reserves blocking for legal requirements. Benefit: usable as a neutral upstream under a local filter like Pi-hole. Limit: no malware or ad blocklist on the resolver, and legal orders could still force a block.
Anycast CDN with RAM cache and HTTP/2
Content is cached in RAM with real-time invalidation and stale-object support, then delivered over Anycast IPv4/IPv6. Protocols on the CDN sheet are HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2. Image optimisation includes WebP conversion and on-the-fly resizing via query string. Docs also mention HTTP, HTTPS, DNS, IMAP, and SMTP on the wider platform, plus automatic IPv4/IPv6 translation for IPv4-only origins.
Optional mTLS and signed URLs at the edge
Clients can authenticate to the CDN with a client certificate. The CDN can also present a client certificate to the origin so only Myra reaches origin. Signed URLs add a cryptographic signature and optional expiry. TLS 1.2/1.3 is stated. These controls are optional add-ons, not defaults for every domain.
Layer 7 DDoS on the same reverse proxy
Malicious HTTP is filtered in Myra's network before a redundant reverse proxy forwards clean traffic. Documented controls include GeoIP blocking, rate limits, attack notifications, post-mitigation reports, and upstream monitoring. Network-layer cloud scrubbing and on-prem BGP protection are separate products for IP prefixes. Vendor capacity claims (for example 1 Tbps class attacks) should be validated in an RFP, not treated as a measured SLA.
WAF, bot management, and EU CAPTCHA add-ons
The CDN is sold as a stack with Hyperscale WAF, deep bot management, and Myra EU CAPTCHA (cookie-free, hashed telemetry, optional dedicated DE/EU endpoints). A managed WAF service is offered as an add-on. This is useful for KRITIS and banking sites that want one German operator. It is not a reason to assume every module is included in a CDN-only quote.
Germany-only TLS termination on request
Because WAF and DDoS inspection decrypt HTTPS, Myra states it will terminate TLS exclusively in Germany when the customer requests it. Exclusive processing in German data centres is the same kind of option. If the contract is silent, marketing still describes globally placed PoPs. Write the region constraint into the order form.
REST APIv2, Myra App, and DNS cutover
Go-live is DNS (A/AAAA to Myra, CNAME, or moving authoritative DNS) plus certificate upload via the Myra App or API. APIv2 is documented at apiv2.myracloud.com and can create domains, change cache settings, and edit DNS. Docs also cover SSO, certificate management, waiting rooms, object storage, WebSockets, and maintenance pages. There is no official self-host of the filter plane.
| Assurance & compliance | DNS.SB | Myra CDN |
|---|---|---|
| Independent security / no-logs audit | Not found Vendor claims logging is disabled. Annual transparency reports exist (2019-2025) but are not an independent security or no-logs audit. Resolver software is undisclosed. | Partial Vendor states regular external pen tests and audits. No public no-logs audit PDF. Independent C5 work in 2022 was described by usd AG. Ask for current pentest and attestation reports. |
| ISO 27001 | Not found No ISO 27001 claim found on dns.sb privacy, FAQ, or xTom imprint pages reviewed. | Verified BSI-IGZ-0667-2024, issued 2024-12-18, valid to 2027-12-17. Scope is Myra Security DDoS-Schutz at six outsourced DC sites, not automatically every CDN PoP. |
| SOC 2 / SOC 3 | Not found No SOC 2 or SOC 3 claim found on the official pages reviewed. | Not found No SOC 2 report published. Closest published control attestations are BSI C5 Type 2 (claimed) and IDW PS 951 Type 2 / ISAE 3402 (claimed). |
| GDPR / EU data protection | Vendor claimed German controller (xTom GmbH). Privacy policy includes a GDPR rights section and states DNS query data is not collected. Website analytics described as self-hosted Plausible on legitimate interests. | Vendor claimed German controller/processor, GDPR pages, optional Germany-only TLS termination. Confirm DPA and processing locations in contract. |
| US CLOUD Act exposure (indicative) | Partial EU entity and no known US parent, but public unicast list includes US cities and US-group providers (Amazon AWS Seoul, DigitalOcean Bengaluru, Vultr Toronto) plus HostVenom Chicago. Anycast includes the United States. Not legal advice. | Partial EU entity, no known US parent, self-operated filter plane. Partial because CDN PoPs are described as global, six DC sites are outsourced and unnamed, and no product subprocessor register was found. Not legal advice. Vendor claims it is not subject to CLOUD Act/FISA 702. |
| Data processing agreement (B2B) | Not found No public DPA. Free service is personal/non-commercial; commercial terms are by contact only. | Not found No public Art. 28 DPA PDF on legal/GDPR/terms pages. EU CAPTCHA FAQ asks whether a DPA must be signed, which implies one exists for that product. Request the current AVV. |
| EU AI Act | Not applicable Public DNS resolver, not an AI system. | Not applicable CDN/WAAP edge. Marketing mentions AI-powered DDoS detection. Not an AI-system product page. |
| BSI C5 Type 2 | Non indiqué | Vendor claimed Current Type 2 claimed on certifications page. usd AG publicly described a 2022 C5 audit with HKKG. Current-year attestation PDF not found. |
| PCI DSS Level 1 | Non indiqué | Vendor claimed Vendor certifications page: PCI DSS Level 1 service provider. No public AOC in this research pass. |
| IDW PS 951 Type 2 (ISAE 3402) | Non indiqué | Vendor claimed Vendor claim of Type 2 over a twelve-month period. Report not published. |
| KRITIS operator (BSIG section 8a(3)) | Non indiqué | Vendor claimed Vendor certifications page. Confirm current attestation in procurement. |
| Considerations & known limitations | DNS.SB | Myra CDN |
|---|---|---|
| No-logs policy is unaudited | Medium Privacy policy and FAQ say query logging is off. There is no independent audit, and the resolver software is not disclosed. Practical impact: you cannot show a third-party report to a security reviewer. | Non indiqué |
| Global anycast and US-group PoP hosts | Medium Default anycast can land on US and other non-EU nodes. Published unicast DoH uses Amazon AWS, DigitalOcean, Vultr, HostVenom, Servers.com, and Misaka in addition to xTom. Practical impact: EU-only query residency is not the default and is not contractual. | Non indiqué |
| Free pool is not a commercial DNS contract | Medium Terms restrict free use to personal and non-commercial cases. No SLA, no public DPA, services provided as-is. Practical impact: embedding DNS.SB in a product or relying on it for production without a license is out of policy. | Non indiqué |
| No resolver-side threat blocking | Low Unfiltered by design, with a legal-requirements caveat. Practical impact: malware and phishing names resolve unless you filter locally or pick a protective resolver. | Non indiqué |
| No DNS64 and no native DoQ | Low FAQ: DNS64 is not offered; native DoQ is under evaluation; DoH over HTTP/3 is available. Practical impact: NAT64-only clients and DoQ-only stubs need another resolver. | Non indiqué |
| Global PoPs unless Germany-only is contracted | Non indiqué | Medium Marketing describes worldwide Anycast delivery. Germany-only TLS termination and exclusive German processing are request options. A silent contract can leave visitor IPs and cached objects on unpublished PoPs outside Germany. |
| Outsourced DCs and no public subprocessor list | Non indiqué | Medium BSI-IGZ-0667-2024 states six independent data-centre sites are outsourced. Operators are not named. No product subprocessor register was found. Procurement should demand the annex before treating the path as EU-only. |
| ISO 27001 scope is DDoS-Schutz, not every SKU | Non indiqué | Low The verified BSI certificate covers the DDoS-protection information network. CDN add-ons, object storage, EU CAPTCHA, and the marketing website are not automatically in that sentence. Align the statement of applicability with the ordered products. |
| Smaller public footprint than Cloudflare | Non indiqué | Medium No public worldwide PoP map comparable to large US CDNs. HTTP/3 is not listed on the CDN spec sheet. Poor fit if you need self-serve global scale or edge compute. |
| Corporate website uses US processors | Non indiqué | Low Privacy policy names Google Analytics, Clarity, Mailjet/Mailgun, Storylane, and other US-linked tools for the website. Separate this from product traffic, but do not treat the privacy policy as proof that the CDN path is US-free. |
When: You want threat blocking at the resolver, not a neutral recursive cache
Consider: Quad9 (Swiss foundation, not yet in this catalog) or a protective DNS4EU profile
DNS.SB documents an unfiltered policy aside from legal requirements.
When: You need a signed DPA, SLA, or EU-only query path under contract
Consider: Self-hosted Unbound or Knot Resolver, or a commercial recursive DNS with a written DPA
Free DNS.SB is personal/non-commercial; city pins are operational, not a contract.
When: You need a full-tunnel VPN plus resolver under one European vendor
Consider: Mullvad
Different product class. Mullvad is a VPN, not a standalone public DNS.
When: You need maximum global PoP density, Workers-style compute, or a self-serve free CDN
Consider: Cloudflare
US parent and CLOUD Act exposure are the usual reason regulated EU buyers leave it.
When: You only need EU origin compute or hosting, not Anycast WAAP
Consider: Hetzner, IONOS, or OVHcloud
These are catalog infrastructure peers, not certified German DDoS/CDN edges.
