Understanding DNS: Mission-Critical for Network Services & Application Access

With hybrid multicloud adoption, expanding device footprints, and rising automation demands, managing network services is now more complex than ever. DNS service is mission-critical for controlling access to applications & services, hence considered the cornerstone of network infrastructures. However, DNS is open by nature and is rarely monitored or analyzed, making it one of the primary targets for cyber criminals to gain command and control, exfiltrate data or redirect traffic.

Signature-based and traffic-threshold security solutions such as firewalls, anti-DoS or IPS are not designed to ensure DNS service availability and integrity. They have proved to be insufficient, even against some basic attacks and, of greater concern, are very susceptible to blocking legitimate clients (false positives). The consequences can be serious for your organization: business impact/downtime, data theft, embezzlement of money, brand damage.

The efficiency and security of your network, and hence your business services, depends largely on the integrity, performance and availability of your DNS.
