Contact usIn cybersecurity, passive DNS is used for detecting malicious activities like domain hijacking and botnets. It stores historical DNS information and provides insights into domain names and IP addresses. Passive DNS solutions enhance security posture and protect against emerging threats.
Passive DNS derives from collecting DNS query information in a database via network sniffing. While traditional DNS records are transient, passive DNS stores a collection and archive of historical DNS records. This contains a wealth of information about DNS queries on the Internet. Analysis of passive DNS data is used for insights into old DNS records, new values, and differences; it can also find possible attack vectors.
An attacker or defender with this information can see where, how, and when your organization’s domain names and IP addresses have changed over time and who is changing them.
CyCognito solves one of the most fundamental business problems in cybersecurity: seeing how attackers view your organization, where they are most likely to break in, what systems and assets are at risk and how you can eliminate the exposure.
Founded by national intelligence agency veterans, CyCognito has a deep understanding of how attackers exploit blind spots and a path of least resistance. Based in Palo Alto, CyCognito serves a number of large enterprises and Fortune 500 organizations, including Colgate-Palmolive, Tesco and many others.
