Domain Name Service Protection

Problem: Malicious Exploits, Unnecessary Expense and Complexity

A successful DNS attack or exploit renders thousands of web sites inaccessible. Even with firewalls, load balancing, and security software, DNS attacks that flood DNS servers with 5, 10, or 20 times their normal traffic volumes can render service unavailable. As a service provider, this can threaten your service, your customers and your bottom line. Most carriers combat today's rampant DNS attacks with expensive redundancy and unnecessary complexity in an attempt to ensure service availability.

Solution: CloudShield DNS Defender

With CloudShield's industry leading solution, you can secure your DNS infrastructure, help retain customers, reduce the unnecessary cost and complexity of additional equipment — and improve performance.

• Protects Critical Infrastructure — and Your Customer Base
  DNS attacks can flood your bandwidth or contain packets that imitate valid DNS queries. CloudShield's patented wire speed Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) capability provides granular visibility into all packets, and distinguishes invalid packets from those that are legitimate. Every query is inspected, even while under attack, without affecting transmission speed. That translates to a secure infrastructure and satisfied loyal customers.
  
  
• Saves on Operating Costs, Capital Expenditures — Enhances DNS Performance
  CloudShield Wire-Speed DNS Protection solution inspects and resolves at a rate of 800,000 queries per second, thereby eliminating many of the redundant DNS servers in a typical DNS server farm. The net result is an increased bottom line, reduced and/or deferred capital expenditures, and higher performance.
