Logicalis US to CIOs, CISOs: It's Time to Take an "Umbrella Approach" to Enterprise SecurityNEW YORK, Jan. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Since the starting point for all enterprise connectivity is the Domain Name System (DNS), doesn't it make sense to secure the DNS when providing enterprise cybersecurity? It's estimated that 97 percent of all attacks involve DNS in some capacity, so the ability for DNS to play a role in security is extensive. By taking an umbrella approach to enterprise security using a secure DNS, CIOs and CISOs can effectively reduce gaps in visibility and coverage while mitigating remediation costs and damage from breaches. To assist IT professionals tasked with enterprise security at their organizations, the security experts at Logicalis US, an international IT solutions and managed services provider(www.us.logicalis.com), have created a series of articles and infograms outlining the benefits of Taking an Umbrella Approach to Security. "By using threat intelligence and cloud scale analytics, and by leveraging how the DNS protocol operates, the approach taken by Cisco Umbrella – formerly OpenDNS – works to protect users from being exposed to attacks and malware no matter where the user or the malware is located," says Ron Temske, Vice President of Security Solutions, Logicalis US. "There are few solutions that can provide this level of impact to enterprise security with such a rapid time to value." Eight Ways Securing DNS Operations Can Provide Greater Enterprise Security
