About

OpenText Core DNS Protection is a cloud-native security solution that monitors and filters every DNS request to block threats before they reach your users or devices. It prevents malware infections by stopping access to malicious domains and Command and Control servers, reducing the risk of data exfiltration. The platform offers full visibility into DNS activity through detailed logs, giving security teams greater insight into network behavior and potential vulnerabilities. With agent-level intelligence, it detects unauthorized DNS servers, enforces policy across encrypted DNS traffic, and eliminates DNS leaks in real time. Deployment takes only seconds, and protection applies on any network—whether employees are in the office, at home, or on public Wi-Fi. By acting as a DNS firewall, OpenText Core DNS Protection closes critical visibility gaps left by legacy tools and strengthens organizational resilience against modern cyber threats.
