Best DNS for security

[DSD27]

I've been reading about which are the best DNS regarding security, I've come to the conclusion that thes best ones are Comodo Secure DNS and OpenDNS.

Websites appear to have contradictory information, so I couldn't really pick one from those two. I read that comodo protects against malware websites while opendns is phising only. Since comodo doesn't have ipv6 dns, I ended up setting Comodo secure dns for ipv4 and Opendns for ipv6 on my router. WIll this work fine?

Which ipv4 and ipv6 DNS do you use?

I let my PiHole handle the DNS requests. It uses OpenDNS, Quad9 and Cloudflare. Works well.

Cloudflare DNS are not a security service in that way, in fact they promise a completely uninhibited DNS service, the complete opposite of what they want here.

yes, I've been using 1.1.1.1 for a long time since Linus did a video about it. I did the benchmark back then and it was actually faster, even if not noticeable in real world use, but it doesn't have security features.

I use OpenDNS/Umbrella for IPv4 and IPv6 and it's been really nice, lots of good security features imo, maybe not top of the line but it's pretty dang good.

Umbrella is for business/companies, same as Comodo Dome Shield. I'm only interested on the free DNS without account.

Ah, yah, forgot they are two separate things these days I believe that without the account then there isn't much in terms of security, there should be some filtering but if you want more granular control then the $20/year is what you need I believe, or the free account at a minimum, I just haven't looked at those in a while.
