DNS Cache

Using DNS to Defend Against Network & DDoS Attacks

Secure64® Caching DNS is a powerful, self-defending caching DNS platform for carrier and enterprise networks. Security, safety, and stability are central to the architecture, ensuring maximum uptime for the platform, high performance, and advanced additional features. Secure64® Caching DNS performs under heavy loads, scales linearly, and defends against DDoS & network attacks.

Benefits

Non Bind-Based

BIND is the world’s most widely deployed DNS software, making it a primary target for attackers seeking to cause maximum worldwide damage. Secure64® DNS Cache™ shares no code with BIND, making it immune to BIND-specific vulnerabilities.

DNS Security Services

DNS Cache supports the DNS Guard security services, which identify and block infected devices before they can cause damage. When integrated with Guard or RPZ lists, DNS Cache can be the front line in your cyberthreat strategy.

Secure64® Vizion Capable

Secure64® Vision allows the administrator to see DDoS attacks and Guard events in near real-time. The information from security events can also be exported in a standardized format to external platforms for further SOC and compliance analysis, monitoring, and reporting.

High Availability

The DNS is a mission-critical networking service that must always be available to service client requests. Conventional DNS servers must be restarted to make configuration changes or use diagnostic tools. DNS Cache allows changes to a running server to be made on the fly, including rules modification, with no loss of service continuity, ensuring that the service can meet even the most stringent availability requirements.
