12. 12 | © 2013 Infoblox Inc. All Rights Reserved. What Attacks do We Protect Against? DNS reflection/DrDoS attacks Using third-party DNS servers(open resolvers) to propagate a DOS or DDOS attack DNS amplification Using a specially crafted query to create an amplified response to flood the victim with traffic DNS-based exploits Attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in the DNS software TCP/UDP/ICMP floods Denial of service on layer 3 by bringing a network or service down by flooding it with large amounts of traffic DNS cache poisoning Corruption of the DNS cache data with a rogue address Protocol anomalies Causing the server to crash by sending malformed packets and queries Reconnaissance Attempts by hackers to get information on the network environment before launching a DDoS or other type of attack DNS tunneling Tunneling of another protocol through DNS for data exfiltration

20. 20 | © 2013 Infoblox Inc. All Rights Reserved. Infoblox DNS Firewall – How Does it Work? An infected mobile device is brought into the office. Upon connection, the malware starts to spread to other devices on the network. 123 The malware makes a DNS query for “bad” domain to find “home.” The DNS Firewall has the “bad” domain in its table and blocks the connection. The DNS Server is continually updated by a reputational data feed service to reflect the rapidly changing list of malicious domains. Malicious domains Infoblox DDI with DNS Firewall Blocked attempt sent to Syslog Live reputational feed of malicious domains 34 Malware 1 Mobile device 2 Malware searches and spreads within network 4 Infoblox Reporting provides list of blocked attempts as well as the IP address MAC address Device type (DHCP fingerprint) Host Name DHCP Lease

21. 21 | © 2013 Infoblox Inc. All Rights Reserved. DNS Firewall – FireEye Adapter How Does it Work? An mobile device receives infected URL or content. Bad.exe or Malware starts to communicate or spread across the network. 123 FireEye NX detonates traffic from device. It determines the traffic is bad. Provides domains & IP addresses of where.exe / URL is trying to connect to DNS Firewall via FireEye Adapter. DNS Firewall is updated and blocks the connection attempts to the domains/IP addresses provided by FireEye NX. Malicious domains Infoblox DDI with DNS Firewall Blocked attempt sent to Syslog 34 Malware 124 Infoblox Reporting provides list of blocked attempts as well as the IP address MAC address Device type (DHCP fingerprint) Host Name DHCP Lease Detonates & Detects advanced malware Play Malware Attack Endpoint Attempting To Download Infected File
