Infoblox Advanced Appliances are purpose-built, high-performance hardware devices that form the foundation of Infoblox security and networking solutions. When integrated with Infoblox Advanced DNS Protection, the solution offers the wide range of DNS protection against DNS attacks including volumetric, exploits, DNS tunneling, NXDOMAIN, and DNS hijacking attacks, as well as DHCP attacks such as malformed DHCP requests. The solution intelligently detects and drops these attacks while responding to legitimate traffic. Moreover, it uses automatic threat intelligence feeds to continually update protection against new and evolving threats as they emerge without the need for patching. The Advanced Appliances leverage dedicated network packet-inspection hardware for threat mitigation. This filters attacks and allows only legitimate traffic through to the DNS/DHCP server application, enabling DNS/DHCP services to function even when under attack. This solution offers full IPv6 support for both authoritative and caching and for DNSSEC and new reports. Infoblox designs and manufactures the purpose-built Advanced Appliances for optimum performance, reliability, and manageability and meets the stringent enterprise and governmental security requirements.
