Botnet and Malware Site Protection
OpenDNS provides comprehensive security for your organization's network through botnet and malware site protection. OpenDNS delivers network security services through the DNS layer, blocking known malicious or infected sites from resolving on your network. Since infected sites are prevented from resolving, malicious content is blocked from reaching your network, and thereby OpenDNS provides the most efficient protection available.
Built-in botnet protection stops trojans, key loggers and other persistent malware and viruses on machines in your network from sending out confidential data and personal information to hackers outside the firewall.
OpenDNS alerts you when it detects certain botnets like Conficker on your network to enable you to take immediate action. Malware site protection stops users from unknowingly going to known sites that can infect user machines, typically through the use of drive-by downloads and browser vulnerabilities. This prevents infected content from reaching your network where it can cause harm and spread to other machines.
