Threat actors are outpacing current security tools
Threat actors use AI to create malware variants to rapidly evade traditional security measures. They use cloaking and massive threat distribution systems (TDSs) to direct victims through a maze of domains to efficiently deliver malicious content at scale while evading detection. Standard security tools can’t keep up.
Infoblox Threat Defense™ closes this gap by monitoring 180,000+ threat clusters and blocking TDS domains, keeping your devices, users and cloud workloads safe without needing a patchwork of security tools.
BENEFITS
Why Infoblox Threat Defense?
PRODUCT DETAILS
Infoblox security products
Take a more proactive security stance using predictive threat intelligence and algorithmic protections while boosting the efficiency of investigation and response.
SOC Insights applies AI analytics to security events, networks, assets and unique DNS threat intel data to distill tens of thousands of alerts to a handful, helping you uncover hidden threats and enhance SOC efficiency with enriched asset visibility.
Lookalike domains are a growing threat that deceives victims and negatively impacts your brand. Threat actors use thousands of them, but Infoblox’s proactive monitoring can help you identify these threats early and avoid brand compromise.
Threat actors use creative domain names to support a wide variety of attacks. Infoblox can leverage its deep ties with global regulators, ISPs, registrars and law enforcement to validate and take down domains that threaten you or your brand.
The Infoblox Security Ecosystem maximizes existing security investments while enhancing security by seamlessly integrating with various tools, enabling real-time threat detection and response, automating tasks and improving operational efficiency.

“With Infoblox, we have much more complete context around and insight into our security data. Instead of us trying to figure out and correlate the data and understand something like, how are DNS requests going to this website? Before, it was a lot of work to do that. But not anymore. Infoblox took that guesswork out.”
Find threats other tools miss
Infoblox Threat Defense uses unique DNS threat intelligence and algorithmic protections to detect threats other tools miss, transforming security effectiveness by uncovering hidden malicious traffic that relies on DNS.
