DNS Intelligence Center Overview Video Watch the exclusive DNS Intelligence Center overview video to understand how DNS analytics and DNS-centric Threat Intelligence allows you to assess risks at a glance: Detect threats early Investigate efficiently Make the right decision Join us as we explore the key features and capabilities of the EfficientIP DNS Intelligence Center, a cutting-edge solution designed to revolutionize the way you protect your network against DNS-based attacks. “By leveraging DNS threat intelligence data, organizations can gain deeper insights into potential threats and take proactive steps to mitigate risk, making DNS a key component of any comprehensive cybersecurity strategy.” Romain Fouchereau, IDC Security Analyst - IDC 2023 Global DNS Threat Report Unified cloud-based visualization for developing specialized DNS threat intelligence Cyber threat intelligence has emerged as a pivotal aspect of cybersecurity defense, with 60% of organizations considering it vital (IDC 2023 Threat Report). DNS traffic contains data on user behavior and intent to offer proactive defense. With DNS-centric Threat Intelligence, your security team can detect and investigate suspicious behavior and malicious intent as early as possible. Leveraging EfficientIP’s DNS expertise, DNS IC offers insightful, actionable, and reliable near-real-time DNS analytics and insights into domain information and behavior, viewable from a cloud-based portal. From this, SOCs can use DNS threat intelligence to: 1) Easily detect threats by identifying malicious domains or suspicious domain behaviors in the enterprise DNS traffic 2) Efficiently investigate suspicious activity by browsing IoC, Risk Scores, and domain behavior analytics to quickly assess threat potential. High-quality internet-scale DNS data, always up-to-date and analyzed Accurate validation of “suspicious behavior” requires global, processed, and current data on networking utilization. Without this, incorrect security decisions or false positives become very likely. Our DNS-centric intelligence is made up of comprehensive, analyzed, and up-to-date information. It leverages unique volumetry of data at internet-scale combined with contextual information to increase data relevance. Details on past history as well as current behavior and intent are included. Guaranteeing high quality and reliability of the data provided to your security teams is fundamental. We continuously collect all data ourselves, across devices, applications, and networks (on-premise, cloud or multi-cloud). Our highly scalable infrastructure caters to any volume and frequency of DNS data. The information is then processed using patented AI-driven and heuristic algorithms. Single-pane-of-glass view on DNS analytics for fast decision-making DNS traffic contains information on all network services, applications, devices, and their usage. Attack traffic also frequently passes through the DNS. Unfortunately, analysis of DNS traffic is often overlooked, as creating DNS Threat Intelligence can be difficult and costly. Your SOC or SIEM may therefore be losing out on receiving valuable indication of threats. To fill this gap, DNS IC provides actionable DNS analytics and insights which are fit-for-purpose, helping accelerate the investigation process. From a centralized, unified portal, your security team has granular visibility down to individual DNS Server or across the entire DNS infrastructure. This visibility on intent and behavior accelerates your decision-making process i.e. do nothing, investigate, or report.

Join us as we explore the key features and capabilities of the EfficientIP DNS Intelligence Center. Video Highlights View suspicious domains via Interactive Threat Intelligence Dashboards Smart Risk Assessment using Indicators of Compromise Example Investigation: Cybersecurity Phishing Site Detect suspicious and malicious domains in enterprise DNS traffic in near real-time With DNS Intelligence Center, you can easily detect suspicious behavior and malicious intent earlier, helping identify threats including the more complex ones such as data exfiltration, DNS tunneling, and C2C. This is done by matching malicious domains with our powerful DNS Threat Intelligence database, or by identifying suspicious domain behaviors in your organization’s DNS traffic. The unique matching system compares your DNS traffic statistics against comprehensive, categorized, and up-to-date threats and classifies occurrences accordingly. From the interactive dashboard, you can zoom in or out to check hits over a selected period of time and get a detailed breakdown per hit, domain, category, or DNS server. Investigate using domain behavior analysis and unique scoring on domains for simpler risk assessment DNS Intelligence Center enables SOCs and security teams to effectively investigate suspicious behavior and accelerate Root Cause Analysis (RCA). This is made possible thanks to detailed contextual information on each specific domain name from our DNS-Centric Threat Intelligence database as well as in-depth suspicious domain analysis. By browsing these detailed metrics such as unique Risk Scoring, threat category, whois and certificate, Indicators of Compromise (IoCs), location, and more, as well as suspicious domain behavior analytics, your SOC and security teams can quickly assess the level of suspicion of a domain. They can determine if behavior is a potential threat, a false-positive, an operational issue, or no issue at all. Automate security event sharing for accelerated threat remediation Lack of insight and visibility on systems and networks has immediate impact on timely defense, jeopardizing business resilience. By integrating DNS threat intelligence with your existing security tools (SIEM, SOAR, NAC, TIP…), security events are automatically shared, enabling proactive threat detection and response. Incorporating DNS IC and DNS Guardian into your security ecosystem enhances behavior investigation and response, root cause analysis, and automation of security responses. Security and SOC teams can develop automated threat response workflows, block threats early using DNS filtering and granular security policies, and significantly reduce MTTR. You can rapidly evolve towards a more integrated security infrastructure to gain agility and overall efficiency.
