Description
Despite the investment in perimeter defense technologies, enclaves are still faced with detecting, analyzing, and remediating network breaches and exploits that have made it past the firewall. An automated incident response infrastructure allows network operations to immediately react to incidents by identifying, analyzing, and mitigating any compromised network or network elements. Incident response teams can perform root cause analysis, determine how the exploit proliferated, identify all affected nodes, as well as, contain and eliminate the threat. Employment of mechanisms to track security incidents is not a function of DNS.
