Cisco Umbrella Deployment
Secure your network by implementing DNA layered security for optimal performance and protection.
DNS Layered Security
DNS Layered Protection is a security solution that protects against cyber threats such as phishing, malware, and botnets. It is recommended for organisations, and businesses of all sizes who are concerned about the security of their online activities and the safety of their sensitive information. This includes, but is not limited to, corporations, financial institutions, healthcare providers, government agencies, and e-commerce websites.
DNS Layered Protection can be especially useful for companies with a large online presence and those that handle sensitive customer information, as it helps to ensure that sensitive data is protected from cyber threats. Overall, anyone who values the security of their online activities and wants to protect their sensitive information from cyber threats can benefit from using DNS Layered Protection.

Overview of Services
DNA Protection deployment is separated into two stages:
Stage 1:
Scoping of your network environment
Stage 2:
Deployment to devices
Note: Deployment times may vary based on network configurations within your organisation. Generally, a week is required for the deployment, however, unforeseen circumstances may increase this time.
The Risks of Not Deploying DNS Layered Protection
Security Threats
Without DNS Layered Protection, your network is vulnerable to security threats, such as malware, which can compromise confidential data and systems.
Network Downtime
Network downtime can occur if security threats are not prevented, causing a loss of productivity an revenue.
Reputational damage
A security breach can damage and organisation’s reputation, affecting customer trust and confidence.
Compliance
Failure to deploy appropriate security measures can result in non-compliance with regulations and standards.
What it Encompasses
DNS Layered Protection introduces multiple capabilities into your security toolkit. At its core, DNS layer security provides protection in-between your network and the public internet by blocking any domains associated with malware, phishing, and command-and-control call-backs. It also ensures that any threats that may silently exist in the network are contained.
Cloud Access Broker (CASB)
DNS Layered Protection also functions as a cloud-access broker (CASB), monitoring cloud application usage to ensure usage and applications meet security requirements, while enabling the discovery of unsanctioned applications that can threaten the organisation's cyber security.
Secure Web Gateway
Secure web gateway functionality monitors traffic, scanning for malware and enabling the use of URL filtering and app-visibility with granular controls.
Threat Intelligence
The solution utilises threat intelligence from one of the largest threat intelligence organisations on the planet. Utilising ongoing data from billions of web requests, along with machine learning and statistical modelling, it is able to automatically uncover malware, ransomware, and other threats.
Cloud Delivered Firewall
Cloud-delivered firewall functionality is an optional capability that enables the solution to monitor and enforce rules for IP, ports, and protocols.
Integrated Platform
Functionality at scale, across locations, and with more complex networks is achieved with lightweight clients, connectors and virtual appliances, and Meraki SD-WAN capabilities enable networks to be securely managed from an integrated platform.
