Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Infoblox, Palo Alto Networks and others in Domain Name System (DNS) Security."Using the reporting, we can tell that we have gained an extra layer of protection. Just by looking at it, we can see what is being blocked before it even makes it to the firewall. It is definitely working."
"Infoblox has helped us improve in the way that we look at data as it comes in and out. We monitor and manage queries from every device that sits inside our company, e.g., every user, every laptop, and every query. When you type something into the web, Infoblox will scan or manage that. If it is going somewhere bad, then it will block them. From a metrics perspective, it gives us data, letting us go back and find those impacted or infected clients to either clean their devices or remove them from the network."
"With the model we have, we are able to scale very easily if we need to."
"Our ability to detect data exfiltration was minimal before Infoblox and the cloud portal was instituted for us. In terms of DNS security as a whole, we had some capability with our firewalls, but this is a lot more specialized because we're sending all of our DNS requests to Infoblox. I'd say we improved 100%."
"When it comes to helping to detect DNS threats, BloxOne is good on all fronts. The number of false positives is very low, close to none. More than once it has detected new names or lookalike names and protected us and saved us from bad characters."
"The reporting ability is helpful. It allows us to control what our users are able to resolve, and then be able to see reports on that."
"The most valuable feature is blocklisting. It's good at what I like to describe as the "silly side cases." We have this annoying security architecture that says we must do this, that, and the other, so we try to make it easier on ourselves."
"The most important features for us are preventing DDOS DNS attacks."
"Trend Micro effectively supports our remote workforce by securing our web servers from external threats, particularly browser security."
"I feel that it is a user-friendly product that provides quick response to users."
"The most valuable feature is machine learning, which automatically monitors the activity on the machine."
"The solution's technical support team is responsive."
"Threat protection solution with good stability and scalability. Installation is straightforward. Support for this product is good."
"The solution is stable."
"It's a stable solution."
"The product's installation phase was easy."
"They could work on the UI of their website and make their website more user-friendly."
"The research side and the reporting side need improvement. Both of those are items on the menu. They could use a little bit of cleanup to make their respective information more easily understood."
"The product could be cheaper."
"The dashboard and reporting features need improvement. The user needs more informative dashboards so they can get to the results directly without getting deep in the report to get to the information."
"The documentation needs to be improved because there are a lot of different models that it can be deployed in, and it's somewhat confusing determining what you need and how to set it up to best cover your use cases."
"Within the past two years, we discovered certain bugs in their products. The resolution of these bugs took a little too much time, especially if our production environment is down for a certain amount of time, then we are losing money. That is hard to convey to Infoblox support, e.g., we actually need the system up and running again within two or three hours. The awareness of these so-called production down incidents is not really easy to convey."
"The onboarding is a little rough at times, and you need to have some information at hand. It is pretty good, but it would be useful to have a few good examples to set up things like data exfiltration."
"We would like to see more reporting capabilities that are now offered only with the on-premises reporting appliance."
"The installation is a little bit complex."
"The system should generate reports when an attack has been stopped, contained, or removed."
"The stability of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The product's scalability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to see better scalability and better performance."
"The product should be more secure and stable. It is also not flexible."
"There are multiple ways Web Security could improve, such as usability and web access to several programming modes."
"They could improve the platform's ability to control normal traffic and prevent attacks like SQL injection and cross-site scripting."
