DNSSense vs. Control D

DNSEye is a tool that identifies harmful network traffic and assesses whether this traffic can be mitigated by your existing security systems. Since DNS is integral to all protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS, and IoT, it provides comprehensive insights into your entire network, no matter the protocol in use. However, data loss prevention (DLP) solutions often fall short in recognizing data exfiltration attempts that utilize DNS tunneling techniques. To effectively address this issue, a thorough analysis of DNS logs is essential. Alarmingly, approximately 80% of domains associated with malware do not possess an IP address, which makes DNS logs the only avenue for identifying malware requests lacking an IP. The logs generated by DNS servers can be extensive and complex, making interpretation challenging. DNSEye simplifies this by enabling the collection, enhancement, and AI-driven classification of DNS logs. Its sophisticated integration with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems optimizes efficiency for Security Operations Center (SOC) teams by transmitting only the pertinent data they require. Furthermore, DNSEye is capable of aggregating logs from a wide range of DNS servers, encompassing various brands and models, without necessitating any modifications to your existing network infrastructure. This seamless integration enhances your overall network security posture while minimizing disruption.

Control D is a versatile DNS filtering and traffic redirection service that utilizes advanced Secure DNS protocols such as DNS-over-HTTPS, DNS-over-TLS, and DNS-over-QUIC, while also accommodating traditional DNS. With Control D, users can effectively eliminate harmful threats, restrict various types of undesirable content across the network—including advertisements, trackers, IoT data, adult material, social media, and more—while also redirecting traffic through transparent proxies and monitoring network activities and usage patterns at a client-specific level. Consider it your own personalized Authoritative DNS resolver for the entire Internet, providing you with detailed control over which domains are allowed to be resolved, redirected, or blocked. This capability not only enhances security but also empowers users to tailor their online experience according to their preferences.
