DNS is at the heart of every internet connection request, which makes securing it crucial to stronger user security. Securing the DNS layer means blocking malicious domains and IP addresses before a remote connection is ever established. This new GigaOm Radar analyst report examines 11 of the top DNS security solutions and their capabilities across criteria like scalability, performance, total cost of ownership, and more to help cybersecurity decision-makers in evaluating and choosing the best DNS security investment for their needs. Get the report to discover why Cisco is a DNS security leader.

How can government agencies, leveraging cloud transformation and hybrid work scenarios for efficiency, engage in their digital transformation without sacrificing security? The answer is Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) – an independent review process based on security standards and controls. FedRAMP is complex, and so is cybersecurity. As per Gartner, to make educated strategic decisions on how to proceed as a security risk management leader, it’s important to understand the FedRAMP process and a few key concepts: the players, the available cloud security levels and controls, the Authority to Operate (ATO) paths, and the pros and cons. This Gartner® report lays out the key facts that security risk management (SRM) leaders need to understand FedRAMP-related cloud options.

You can’t protect against what you can’t see. Cisco resolves billions of DNS requests every day and with every connection to website or application, we gain insight into threats being staged all over the internet. From this data, we can see how bad actors use the internet to exploit vulnerabilities and identify which threats are on the rise. The Cisco Cyber Threat Trends report can help you discover the real-life threats your organization could be at risk for and how DNS-layer security and security service edge user protection helps you stop threats before a connection is made.

The cloud has changed infrastructure for federal, state, and local government agencies. There are many regulatory requirements and considerations to navigate, and a secure implementation requires careful planning. This SANS whitepaper reviews key regulations that agencies should be aware of to securely enable a cloud-first transition.
