Defending Your Local DNS Infrastructure
To defend against DDoS attacks targeting DNS services at the enterprise level, it is key to quickly detect any kind of DNS vector attack before it breaches your on-premise DNS infrastructure.
The DNS (Domain Name System) protocol is a critical part of the Internet’s control plane, providing name resolution functionality and supporting other capabilities, that are taken for granted, such as load-balancing and internet traffic management. The availability of DNS is key for anyone providing services or content across the Internet; if the DNS infrastructure
is unavailable or slow, the user experience would be impacted to the point of “no internet service”.
