Cisco OpenDNS Umbrella – ADVANCED THREAT PROTECTION

The easiest and fastest way to protect users 100% of the time
Umbrella Roaming protects employees when they are off the VPN by blocking malicious domain requests and IP responses as DNS queries are resolved. By enforcing security at the DNS-layer, connections are never established and files are never downloaded. Malware will not infect laptops and command & control (C2) callbacks or phishing will not exfiltrate data over any port. Plus, you gain real-time visibility of infected laptops with C2 activity.​
Simple for both security & system admin teams
