Step inside DNS Guardian—the core of EfficientIP’s 360° DNS Security solution—and discover how security teams can stay ahead of today’s most advanced DNS-based threats.

As DNS has become a primary attack vector for malware, phishing, and data exfiltration, traditional defenses have fallen short. DNS Guardian offers a purpose-built, DNS-centric approach that protects data and users through granular application access control and DNS-centric threat intelligence, detects threats early with behavioral analysis, and ensures effective response with adaptive countermeasures. It also guarantees service continuity even under high-volume attacks, thanks to the world’s fastest secure DNS cache.

In this TechExpert session, you’ll see DNS Guardian in action through a live demo showcasing:

Proactive protection with Client Query Filtering leveraging EfficientIP’s DNS-centric threat intelligence (DNS Threat Pulse) for granular access control.
Early threat detection through patented DNS Transaction Inspection (DTI) and real-time behavioral analysis.
Effective response with adaptive, patented countermeasures to ensure service continuity during attacks.

Inside DNS Guardian: Proactively Protect, Detect Early, Effectively Respond

Every DNS query leaves clues — and your traffic holds more insight than you think.
In this live session, EfficientIP experts will show how DNS analysis transforms raw query data into clear, visual intelligence. Through a live demo of EfficientIP’s free DNS Risk Assessment report, built from real traffic, you’ll discover how everyday DNS data can expose hidden threats, risky behaviors, and overlooked vulnerabilities.
You’ll see how your DNS reveals:
- Patterns in DNS traffic – exposing abnormal activity and unexpected query behavior
- Suspicious behaviors – revealing threats hidden in cache and suspicious domains activity
- Tunneling attempts – showing covert data transfers and estimated bytes sent
- Risky applications – identifying unauthorized or vulnerable software across your network
Learn how a few days of DNS data can expose what traditional tools miss - helping you detect risks earlier, improve visibility, and strengthen your overall security posture.
Watch now to turn your DNS traffic into actionable security insight.

What Your DNS Is Trying to Tell You: Reveal Risk in Traffic

91% of security leaders say improving monitoring and analysis of DNS traffic is important to securing cloud infrastructure. This insight comes from a 2025 commissioned study by Forrester Consulting: Forrester Opportunity Snapshot: Embrace DNS Security And Overcome Hurdles Of Cloud Adoption.
As organizations shift to hybrid and multicloud environments, traditional security tools are struggling to keep up. The study reveals how this growing complexity creates blind spots—and why DNS is emerging as a critical, yet often underutilized, layer for visibility, threat detection, and control.
In this webinar, we’ll unpack the study’s key findings and demonstrate how comprehensive DNS Security helps you proactively protect your network, detect threats earlier, respond faster, and strengthen your cloud defenses.

Real-world DNS-based attacks examples
The critical importance of DNS Security in mitigating these threats
Expanding defenses to protect against a broader range of cyber attacks
Watch the recording of this insightful session to understand the importance of proactive DNS Security in protecting the Olympic Games and other large events.

Paris 2024 Olympics: Defying the Dire Cybersecurity Predictions. How DNS Security helps.

The last IDC threat report shows that 90% of organizations across all verticals suffer DNS attacks, with each attack costing on average $1.1M
Since DNS isn’t generally associated with data delivery, it is often overlooked. Cyber criminals benefit from this assumption to bypass security mechanisms for transporting sensitive data from inside to outside the enterprise.
To protect data confidentiality, organizations need to look beyond traditional security solutions which have proven to be ineffective against data exfiltration via DNS.

Attend the webinar and learn:
- How easily Data Exfiltration via the DNS can be demonstrated
