Description

WatchGuard DNSWatch is a cloud-based solution that enhances security through DNS-level filtering, which helps identify and prevent potentially harmful connections while safeguarding both networks and employees from destructive attacks. Critical alerts are analyzed by WatchGuard experts, who provide clear summaries that include in-depth information regarding any potential threats. In instances where phishing is involved and an employee inadvertently clicks a malicious link, DNSWatch swiftly redirects them away from the harmful site and supplies educational resources to bolster their understanding of phishing risks. Since hackers often exploit DNS to launch attacks on unaware targets, monitoring DNS requests proves to be an effective strategy for detecting and thwarting such threats. By incorporating DNS-level filtering into the Total Security Suite, DNSWatch adds an essential layer of protection against malware infections. Additionally, attempts made by users to connect to recognized malicious DNS addresses are automatically blocked, ensuring they are redirected to a secure landing page without any disruption to their experience. This proactive approach not only defends against immediate threats but also educates users, contributing to a more security-conscious workplace.

Description

OpenText Core DNS Protection delivers continuous, comprehensive oversight of DNS traffic to defend organizations against stealthy, fast-moving attacks. It inspects every DNS resolution request—from applications, browsers, and background processes—and immediately filters out malicious queries before harm can occur. The solution helps prevent data loss by blocking communication with Command and Control infrastructure used for exfiltration and ransomware operations. With dynamic detection of unauthorized DNS servers, it ensures that encrypted DNS traffic cannot bypass corporate policies. Administrators can centrally manage rules, analyze DNS patterns, and identify vulnerabilities through built-in reporting dashboards. Hybrid and remote workers stay fully protected because the agent enforces DNS policies on any network. Setup is fast and frictionless, giving organizations instant security improvements without major infrastructure changes. By restoring full visibility and control over DNS activity, the platform strengthens the security posture of modern, distributed environments.
