I use OpenDNS for my home system... local machines point to Astlinux for
DNS, Astlinux points to OpenDNS name servers. OpenDNS maintains a list of
"bad" websites by category and I can block/permit them as I choose. I use
their free service, but you get more control with one of their paid
services. This works unless anyone with a local machine manually changes
their DNS to point at a name server outside of my house. No one is smart
enough to do that, but if they were, I suppose I could block DNS traffic
through arno firewall to close that loophole?

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a
definitive record of customers, application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. Business sense. IT sense. Common sense..
