Automated, intelligent DNS protection

DNS is one of the fastest-growing attack vectors because it’s essential for network connectivity, and current security solutions are not designed to protect it. Distributed denial of service (DDoS) and other external and internal DNS-based threats can flood your DNS server with malicious requests, bringing down your network. These attacks can redirect users to harmful Internet destinations, exfiltrate data, and expose your customers and business to additional risks. Security technologies such as NextGen firewalls, IPS, and generic DDoS solutions do not understand DNS and are unable to prevent specific attacks such as DNS cache poisoning, DNS hijacking, reflection attacks, amplification attacks, and many others.

With Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection, you can comprehensively defend your DNS server from the widest range of DNS-based attacks, while maintaining service availability and business continuity.

Reduce DNS service disruption

Eliminate DNS service disruption from the broadest array of DNS-based attacks. Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection distinguishes between legitimate and malicious DNS traffic in real-time, enabling your DNS server to respond only to valid queries, even while under attack. Defend against volumetric attacks, including DDoS and TCP/UDP/ICMP floods. Prevent DNS hijacking, cache poisoning, and other DNS-specific exploits.

Adapt to evolving threats through automation

Keep your defences current and minimise exposure to fast-evolving DNS-based attacks. An industry first, Infoblox Threat AdaptTM technology delivers actionable network intelligence by harnessing ongoing intelligence on attack techniques from multiple sources and automatically fortifying your existing protection against new and evolving DNS threats. No patches, additional development, or configuration changes are required.
