Customized, real-time reports based on DNS observability

Authoritative DNS data is a rich source of intelligence on application performance and potential security threats. The challenge is cutting through the noise to find the early signs of a DDoS attack, performance-impacting misconfigurations, and inadvertent data exposures that really matter. NS1 Connect provides:

  • Relevant DNS data in real time, giving you the information you need to close security vulnerabilities and improve application performance.
  • Curated and customizable reports, so you only see the metrics that matter to your business.
