Hybrid DNS Engine Technology for Zero-Day Vulnerability Mitigation and DNS Resilience

EfficientIP Hybrid DNS technology provides the highest level of security against zero-day vulnerabilities. The SOLIDserver™ Hybrid DNS incorporates two “best-in-class” engines in one appliance, easily and transparently managed as a single entity (BIND & NSD/Unbound). Thanks to SmartArchitecture™ templates and wizard-driven management, the deployment of DNS architectures mixing different technologies is simple, ensuring compliance with fundamental security best practices, and eliminating single point of failure. Upon a security breach, you switch from the running name server software to the alternate name server software with a single click, unaffected by the DNS vulnerability. The DNS service is immediately secure. This eliminates the need to apply a security patch in an emergency without having validated its stability. The administrative team has time to test and validate the upgrade, and keep control of the process of critical network changes.
