Infoblox unites networking and security to deliver unmatched performance and protection. Trusted by Fortune 100 companies and emerging innovators, we provide real-time visibility and control over who and what connects to your network, so your organization runs faster and stops threats earlier.

The belief that cloud workloads are inherently secure—thanks to the shared responsibility model or reliance on cloud-native firewalls, WAFs, and DDoS services—is a common misconception. These tools often fail to block outbound communications to malicious domains, leaving workloads vulnerable to command-and-control activity, data exfiltration, and AI-driven threats.  

This webinar explores how Protective DNS (PDNS) plays a pivotal role in preemptive security by blocking threats before they impact your environment. We’ll discuss how DNS-layer visibility and intelligence can help organizations secure cloud-native, lift-and-shift, and virtual desktop workloads across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.  

Key Takeaways:  
- The unique challenges of securing cloud workloads  
- How Protective DNS works and why it matters  
- NIST security best practices and DNS as a control point  
- The role of DNS in a preemptive security strategy

Beyond the Firewall: Securing Cloud Workloads with Protective DNS

In today’s distributed enterprise, legacy DNS, DHCP, and IPAM infrastructures can create significant performance and security bottlenecks, particularly in hybrid cloud environments. Join AWS and Infoblox as we explore how integrated DDI services help modern organizations build scalable, secure, and automated network foundations across cloud and on-premises environments. 

We’ll cover: 
- Key DDI modernization priorities for hybrid architectures 
- How Infoblox extends enterprise-grade visibility and control to AWS 
- Real-world use cases and lessons from successful implementations 

Attendees will walk away with actionable strategies to future-proof their cloud infrastructure while improving security and automation across their environments.

Modernize, Secure, and Scale: Building Resilient Hybrid Cloud Networks with AWS and Infoblox

Zero Trust has evolved—from a security framework to a strategic imperative. But in today’s hybrid, AI-accelerated threat landscape, traditional implementations fall short if DNS is left out of the equation. 

Join Infoblox and Microsoft for a forward-looking discussion on how Protective DNS is becoming the cornerstone of modern Zero Trust architectures. DNS is not just infrastructure—it’s a strategic control plane for both intent-based and preemptive security. 

In this session, you’ll learn: 
- Why implicit trust in DNS undermines Zero Trust principles 
- How Protective DNS (PDNS) preemptively blocks threats before the first packet is sent 
- How Microsoft’s ZTDNS validates the need for DNS-layer policy enforcement 
- Real-world strategies for integrating DNS into your Zero Trust journey 

Whether you're a CISO, architect, or security strategist, this session will equip you with a modern blueprint for Zero Trust—one that starts with DNS.

In an era where cyber threats are increasingly powered by artificial intelligence, traditional security measures are often insufficient. This webinar, "The Role of Preemptive DNS Security in Combating AI-Powered Cyber Attacks” aims to address the growing concern of AI-driven cyber threats and highlight the pivotal role of preemptive DNS security in safeguarding your network.  

Join us to learn about:  

- The rise of AI in cyber attacks 
- How preemptive DNS security works 
- The steps to implement effective preemptive DNS security 
- Expert insights and actionable tips

The Role of Preemptive DNS Security in Combating AI-Powered Cyber Attacks

Join this webinar to learn about NIST’s newly updated guidelines on DNS. This new version of the guidelines introduces two important new features of the Domain Name System (DNS), Encrypted DNS and Protective DNS, and refreshes many other areas. The guidelines apply to organizations including both government agencies and businesses.  

Originally published in 2006, the NIST guidelines have provided legions of administrators and implementers with invaluable recommendations and best practices. But in the almost 20 years since the latest version of the guidelines, the DNS community has introduced significant new functionality, particularly Encrypted DNS and Protective DNS. 

Key updates in the revised version include: 
- Best practices for deploying Encrypted DNS to secure communications between stub resolvers (DNS clients) and recursive DNS servers. 
- Best practices for deploying Protective DNS to help secure internet worked devices from a wide variety of threats, including phishing, malware, and more. 
- Best practices for securely configuring DNS software like BIND and NSD. 
- Guidelines for managing "split-zone" configurations, which involve separating DNS control across multiple servers or environments. 

These updates ensure that DNS is protected against security threats by using current, recommended security standards.

Securing DNS with NIST Guidelines: Best Practices and Latest Standards

Many organizations are migrating workloads to the cloud as a key component to their Network Transformation Initiatives. New first-party research conducted by Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) found that organizations not leveraging enterprise-grade DDI experienced 44% more quarterly cloud outages than organizations leveraging enterprise-grade DDI. Purpose-built DDI is a key pillar to a successful Network Transformation. 

Join us April 23rd for an expert discussion on how you can take advantage of DDI best practices to: 

- Enhance Network Connectivity: Discover how DNS and DHCP enable seamless device communication and how IPAM ensures efficient IP address allocation. Learn why a modernized network is ineffective without a scalable, automated DDI solution. 
- Integrate Cloud & Hybrid IT: Understand the challenges traditional static DDI approaches face as organizations adopt cloud and hybrid models. Explore how cloud-native DDI solutions enable agility, automation, and seamless integration. 
- Boost Security & Enforce Zero Trust: Learn how modern DDI solutions enhance security by preventing DNS-based attacks, leveraging threat intelligence, and enforcing Zero Trust policies. 
- Improve Automation & Efficiency: See how legacy, manual IP management cannot support the dynamic nature of SD-WAN, IoT, and 5G. Discover how automated DDI enables self-service provisioning, reducing errors and downtime. 
- Scale for Future Growth: Find out how DDI modernization prevents performance bottlenecks and network disruptions as networks expand with more connected devices, applications, and remote workers. 

Register Now to secure your spot and gain valuable insights into the strategic importance of DDI in your network transformation initiatives.
