This protection can be utilized in the event that an unwary employee clicks on a malicious email link or an infected USB device tries to call home in order to deliver a harmful payload. dns firewall, which is powered by esentire’s active threat prevention service, feeds its whitelists and blacklists with data from cymonTM, the world’s biggest open threat intelligence aggregator of its sort. Cymon monitors malware, phishing, botnets, spam, and more by ingesting data from more than 180 sources on a daily basis and adds more than 20,000 distinct ips to its database on a daily basis.

It prevents attacks in advance by blocking requests to millions of known dangerous domains, therefore expanding the perimeter of protection beyond the firewall. It safeguards against malware that utilizes changing IP addresses to elude detection by intercepting domain names, so preventing the spread of the infection. • provided as a fully managed service and monitored around the clock by the worldwide security operations center of esentire; includes managed alerts, investigation, and remedial help. • It is provided as a service and has no underlying infrastructure, so there is no need for users to install any hardware or software.
