DNSDNS SecurityInternet of ThingsDNS Threat Intelligence for Healthcare NetworksHealthcare institutions are proving to be increasingly targeted for cyberattacks such as DDoS and ransomware, causing life-threatening impact as well as severe breach damage costs. As it ensures seamless connectivity to important systems and services, enabling timely access to critical information, DNS is a top target and attack vector for cybercriminals. Itโs therefore no surprise that the IDC 2023 Global DNS Threat Report emphasizes specialized DNS Security, incorporating DNS Threat Intelligence, to be mandatory for proactive network security. Enlarged threat...

The Clock is Ticking!The NIS 2 directive underscores the importance of robust DNS security to uphold internet integrity, highlighting DNS’s critical role in digital infrastructure and vulnerability to cyber threats. Implementing a Protective DNS Security solution combined with DNS-centric threat intelligence and other security measures is essential for organizations to improve defenses, minimize cyber risks, and ensure compliance with new standards set by NIS 2, thereby maintaining internet stability and security. Letโs take a closer look. NIS 2: What’s next? The year ahead...
DDIDHCPDNSDNS SecurityIPAMNew EfficientIP DNS Intelligence Center: Fortifying DNS SecurityOrganizations are faced with two pressing security concerns today. Poor visibility over IT network activity has made them increasingly difficult to manage. And at the same time, cybercriminals are launching more attacks, often exploiting DNS, and using diverse tactics designed to exploit this lack of visibility. To address these challenges, EfficientIP is announcing the commercial launch of two groundbreaking products: DNS Intelligence Center (DNS IC) and DDI Observability Center (DDI OC). Read on to discover how they leverage DNS threat...

And on the network security side, the new release incorporates...
DNSDNS SecurityAugmenting Zero Trust: Why Using DNS Allow Lists is a No-BrainerYou canโt control what you canโt see, as the saying goes. One of the main pillars of Zero Trust Foundations is Granular Visibility and Control on the traffic. This means being able to differentiate the sources of the traffic (microsegmentation) and their related destinations. From there, security wise, one can decide what has to be done, allowing or denying source-destination combinations. Regarding granular visibility, DNS by nature sees all traffic intents at the earliest possible point in the IP traffic...

DHCPDNSDNS SecurityIPAMEnhancing IoT Security with DNS CQFIoT devices are popping up every second, with many being on an organizationโs network but not always under the control of I&O teams. These devices are required to be identified, inventoried, screened, managed and secured in order not to cause any problems to the rest of the IT ecosystem, the users or the organization itself. This requires tooling and processes where the DDI (DNS-DHCP-IPAM) certainly has an important role to play, in particular EfficientIPโs DNS Client Query Filtering (CQF) feature....
