DNS Security for Healthcare: Controlling Connected Devices and Protecting Patient Data

Over the past few years, healthcare organizations have been rapidly moving towards connected devices and cloud, driven by digital transformation projects and accelerated by the pandemic. However, to allow operating with complete trust, cybersecurity solutions need to keep pace with new telehealth/telemedicine technologies adopted which due to their criticality for patient health must be “always on”. Above all, network infrastructure needs to be reliable, connected medical devices have to be controlled in terms of what infrastructure they are allowed to...

SD-WAN: Why DDI is Key for Efficient Management

As published in a recent article in SDxCentral based on research from MEF, both the SD-WAN and SASE markets show strong revenue and activity, but they both face challenges impacting market efficiencies and growth. Let’s review the related challenges presented in the article and see how a solid DDI Solution can help mitigate these challenges and ease multi-vendor SD-WAN and integration of Security options. Challenges with SD-WAN for Service Providers and Enterprises Across the globe, 36 Service Provider experts were surveyed and the results...

SOLIDserver 8.1: Simplifying Multi Cloud Management and App Access Control

The Release 8.1 of SOLIDserver enhances multi cloud agility and efficiency for organizations by simplifying and automating cloud management, as well as enabling zero trust network security by improving application access control with simpler microsegmentation. With the addition of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to AWS and Microsoft Azure, organizations are given the capability to move more easily between individual cloud providers according to their business needs, helping avoid cloud lock-in. And on the network security side, the new release incorporates...

SOLIDserver NOT Impacted by Log4j Security Vulnerability

The EfficientIP SOLIDserver Solution is not affected by the security vulnerability described in the CVE-2021-44228 as it does not in any way use the Apache Log4j library. Following publicity around the Apache Log4j security vulnerability last week-end we have received a lot of calls from customers, partners and community friends asking about the possible impact on our DDI solution, especially on the API endpoint that may be used in all IT automation as the IPAM is the central source of...

DDI for Telco: Improving Business Continuity, Operational Efficiency and Scalability

For Telecom operators and Internet Service Providers, IP networks are becoming increasingly complex to manage and evolve. Multi cloud, IoT, 5G and other digital transformation projects have introduced “anything-as-a-software”, SD-WAN, NFV and SDN architectures and opened up new usages requiring ultra-low latency. DNS, DHCP and IPAM (known collectively as DDI) are critical technologies for IP networks, and together with automation are mandatory for simplifying management via zero-touch operations, while ensuring service availability and enhancing user experience. EfficientIP’s all-in-one solution integrates...

Ansible & DDI Automation: Connecting Compute and Network Teams

Ansible as a solid automation foundation Ansible is a great open source software for managing server fleets with regards to their installation and configuration. With Ansible able to exchange with a DDI solution (DNS, DHCP and IPAM), the compute teams can use automation to keep the global repository up to date, and use it for all the valuable data in the IP plan and associated metadata. This collaboration between DDI and Ansible raises automation of compute resources and helps ops...

DNS Security – A Critical Element of the Shift to Long-Term Remote Work

Twenty months into the COVID-19 pandemic, remote work is no longer a temporary situation but the status quo for many. In fact, recently Gartner forecasts indicated that by the close of this year, 51% of knowledge workers worldwide are expected to be working remotely, up from 27% just two years ago. With an estimate of 32% of all employees worldwide expected to work remotely by the end of 2021, it is clear that the abrupt shift to remote work during...

How DNS Security Protects the Most Targeted Industry: Telecoms

The past year has only increased the pressure placed upon the telecoms and media industry as companies continue their transition to the hybrid working model post pandemic and organizations continue to implement 5G. The rise in demand has left mobile operators and ISPs increasingly prone to threat actors using DNS to target the industry. The impacts of these cyber threats are felt globally, as telecoms provide the infrastructure needed to go about our daily lives, from our work to our...

Improving I&O Efficiency with DNS and DHCP Services in Containers

Running applications, components and services in containers is particularly interesting with regards to the ease of deployment, the level of isolation and the topologies authorized through some modern architecture models. DNS and DHCP services, considered Core Network Services, are distributed by nature, are positioned very close to user devices and can benefit from these architecture patterns. EfficientIP services can run in containers and still be managed centrally from the SOLIDserver management plane, allowing dynamic topologies, automated scale in/out and edge...

Simplify Management of DNS Services with DNS Cloud Extension to Azure DNS Zones

Hardening your DNS infrastructure Securing your Internet visibility at a global scale is easily achieved using Public Cloud DNS Services. To avoid Public Cloud vendor lock-in you need a solution that will simplify and unify the management of your public DNS Zones while hardening security. EfficientIP DNS Cloud does just that and more. DNS Servers deliver critical services to your organization but they are exposed to attacks from the Internet. In the IDC 2021 Global DNS Threat Report, 76% of...
