As online scams continue to target internet users across the Maldives, Dhiraagu NetProtect remains available as a digital security service aimed at reducing exposure to common online threats.
The service is designed to protect users from unsafe SMS links, social media links, and phishing websites by issuing alerts before potentially harmful content is accessed. This allows customers to avoid scams, fraud, and other digital risks while browsing online. According to Dhiraagu, the service blocked more than nine million security threats in November alone, reflecting the scale of online risks faced by users.
Dhiraagu NetProtect operates using AI-driven security technology that is continuously updated with real-time threat intelligence. This enables the system to identify emerging risks and provide ongoing protection without requiring users to install additional software or applications on their devices.
The service also offers features aimed at supporting online safety for children. Parents and guardians can use NetProtect to identify and block unsafe websites, set time limits for access to specific sites, and restrict internet usage during selected periods.
Dhiraagu mobile customers can access NetProtect for a monthly fee of MVR 35, while fixed broadband customers are charged MVR 50 per month. Activation can be completed through the DhiraaguApp, and the service can be customised based on individual needs.
Dhiraagu has stated that it continues to focus on providing digital solutions that address everyday online risks, alongside broader efforts to support safer internet use across the country.
