Infoblox launches SOC Insights

Security and networking company Infoblox has launched an AI-powered cyber intelligence technology designed to use DNS intel to block threats before they occur.

The new offering, SOC Insights, is now available for companies in Australia and New Zealand as a complement to the company's DNS detection and response solution BloxOne Threat Defence.

The new capabilities are designed to help security analysts jump-start investigations and dramatically reduce response time for security events by eliminating wasted time by consolidating individual alerts into unique insights.

Security operations centre teams can use the enhanced platform to apply DNS threat intelligence to proactively disrupt adversaries’ infrastructure to stop threats before they occur, while helping quickly identify which events require a rapid response.

Infoblox Managing Director of Australia and New Zealand said the new offering will be particularly useful in the two markets, which are grappling with ongoing cybersecurity skills shortages.

“Australia and New Zealand’s cybersecurity skills shortage is so great that it can’t be solved by getting more people into the industry alone,” he said. “SOC Insights delivers AI-driven insights in a way the industry hasn’t seen before, aligning to the new Cyber Security Strategy’s call for ‘real-time threat sharing to facilitate automated threat-blocking capabilities’.”

With the new capability, managed security service providers and IT channel partners can also help their customers improve their security posture, optimise their security investments and streamline their operations, he said.
