DNS Protection and Challenges

What is DNS Protection?

Given that DNS is a critical component of internet functionality, it is a frequent target for cyberattacks. Attackers may exploit vulnerabilities in DNS to redirect traffic, steal data, or launch further attacks.
By implementing robust DNS protection, organizations can significantly reduce the risk of successful attacks, safeguard sensitive information, and maintain operational continuity.
DNS protection also ensures that unauthorized users cannot exploit the DNS infrastructure to carry out harmful actions such as data exfiltration or malware distribution.

The silent DNS challenge: Exposing invisible threat pathways

Adversaries use DNS protocol to keep their communications covert and evade detection. In particular, modern malwares use DNS to establish a command and control channel and facilitate exfiltration to take advantage of the fact that DNS traffic is not typically analyzed by firewalls and IDS/IPS devices.

Seceon's Solution

Seceon Inc. provides an Open Threat Management (OTM) platform that leverages AI and machine learning to detect and prevent DNS cyber threats, including DDoS and DNS tunneling attacks. Here’s how Seceon detects and mitigates DNS threats:

DDoS Attack Prevention
