DNS Intelligence Center (DNS IC) is a cloud-based DNS threat intelligence and analytics platform designed to help Security Operations Centers (SOCs) detect and investigate DNS-based threats in near real-time. The platform collects and processes DNS traffic data across on-premise, cloud, and multi-cloud environments, using AI-driven and heuristic algorithms to analyze domain behavior and intent. Data is gathered at internet scale and enriched with contextual information to improve relevance and accuracy. Key capabilities include: - Matching enterprise DNS traffic against a categorized threat intelligence database to identify malicious domain hits - Identifying suspicious domain behaviors such as data exfiltration, DNS tunneling, and command-and-control (C2C) activity - Providing Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) and risk scoring for individual domains to support threat assessment - Offering domain behavior analysis to accelerate Root Cause Analysis (RCA) - Presenting analytics through a unified, interactive dashboard with granular visibility down to individual DNS servers or across the full DNS infrastructure The portal provides near-real-time visibility over analyzed and categorized DNS traffic, allowing security teams to browse threat hits by time period, domain, category, or DNS server. The underlying data is continuously collected and processed by EfficientIP across devices, applications, and networks, leveraging patented algorithms to maintain data quality and freshness.
