OpenDNS not only blocks malware, botnets and phishing but also detects and contains advanced attacks before they can cause damage. But how does it work?
How does OpenDNS Umbrella work?
OpenDNS is a cloud-delivered network security service that proactively protects users from advanced malware, botnets and phishing attacks. Unlike reactive signature-based tools, OpenDNS leverages big data analytics and real-time algorithmic learning machines processing over one million events per second. This 2% cross section of the world’s Internet activity enables OpenDNS to predict and prevent attacks. It protects users on- and off-network, across any port, protocol, or app. And because Umbrella is delivered via the cloud, it is lightning-fast and easily scalable.
Predictive intelligence to proactively protect your employees: OpenDNS is powered bypredictive intelligence, which means that we identify malicious places on the Internetand prevent your employees from visiting them, so that they don’t get infected withmalware.
Maintain acceptable use & compliance: filter up to 60 content categories and domain-specific whitelists & blacklists, so you can manage where any corporate-owned assetgoes whether on- or off-network.
