    NetChange from EfficientIP gives customers advanced discovery and automated configuration of the network across all of their physical and virtual platforms. It provides global visibility, centralised management and consolidated reporting. Network automation eliminates manual, error-prone and labour-intensive tasks in order to boost productivity, improve operational efficiency and reduce costs. NetChange puts customers in control of their whole network.

  • EfficientIP – Virtualisation and Cloud

    Cloud services are now a key component of IT operations – utilised by more than 90% of organisations globally. However, when rolling out compute cloud services, DNS and IP address provisioning often lags behind compute and storage processes, leading to delays in the rollout of applications and inconsistency of network policies. Manual lifecycle management of […]

    Cloud services are now a key component of IT operations – utilised by more than 90% of organisations globally. However, when rolling out compute cloud services, DNS and IP address provisioning often lags behind compute and storage processes, leading to delays in the rollout of applications and inconsistency of network policies.
    Manual lifecycle management of IP resources is extremely time-consuming, causes configuration errors, and makes it difficult to enforce security policies; coupling this with a lack of centralised management – in hybrid and multi-cloud environments – this causes incomplete and out-of-date visibility over the networks, virtual private clouds (VPCs), IP addresses and DNS records being assigned.
    For successful projects, end-to-end cloud provisioning has therefore become vital. In this context, including deployment automation via integrated DDI (DNS, DHCP, IP Address Management) helps tremendously to overcome the above challenges, and guarantee that a customer’s virtual and cloud network infrastructure actively supports their business imperatives:

    • Increased agility and scalability to handle ongoing changes
    • Faster time-to-service
    • Boosted productivity to accelerate organisation’s efficiency
    • Decreased operational costs to do more with less

    EfficientIP DDI and network automation solutions help organisations to deploy more agile, reliable and scalable public cloud (AWS, Azure, Google), private cloud (VMware, OpenStack), and hybrid cloud infrastructures through intelligent orchestration and end-to-end automation. To help make sure “cloud lock-in” is avoided, the DDI solution supports multi-cloud and leading orchestrators.
    In addition, to help businesses make the best use of automated processes and take a big step towards zero touch networks, the solution integrates easily with leading IT Service Management ITSM editors and networking solutions such as ServiceNow and Cisco DNA.

    DNS Guardian is a protective DNS solution that delivers built-in security to cache, recursive and authoritative DNS servers. It is the premier secure DNS appliance on the market offering complete and real-time DNS Transaction Inspection (DTI), enabling in-depth understanding of the context of client requests.

    By analysing transactions at the heart of the DNS server (queries, responses, fragments, recursions), threat visibility is enhanced well beyond known attack patterns and overcomes the limitations of signature-based protection systems that only offer limited peripheral traffic visibility.

    DNS Guardian offers in-depth analysis of the DNS traffic to detect data exfiltration and identify attacks (cache poisoning, DNS tunnelling, DGA malware and bots etc.) then quickly activate adapted countermeasures to protect service continuity and integrity.

  • EfficientIP – DNS Blast

DNS Blast is the world’s fastest DNS cache appliance, absorbing up to 17 million (17M) DNS queries per second (QPS) to secure DNS servers against extreme DDoS attacks, such as DNS amplification and reflection attacks.


    Leverage DNS Blast performance and security features to reduce infrastructure costs and complexity by suppressing useless layers of network defense systems and slow-performing DNS servers. Dozens of DNS clusters and load balancers can be eliminated – dramatically decreasing TCO, simplifying your DNS infrastructure, and increasing your level of DNS security. Deploy a decentralised DNS architecture to get the DNS service closer to customers, enabling you to reduce latency, improve user experience, and block the clustering of traffic in the network core during attacks.
