Secure Connectivity

How Cisco Umbrella Works?

Cisco Umbrella operates at the DNS layer, the foundational layer of the internet. This proactive approach ensures threats are blocked before they can impact your network. Here’s how it works when users connect to a domain:

Safe Request: Allowed without interruptions for seamless access.
Suspicious Request: Redirected through an intelligent proxy for deeper inspection.
Malicious Request: Instantly blocked, preventing harm to your network or devices.

Why DNS Security Matters?

Unlike traditional security measures that rely on endpoint detection, DNS-layer security works at the first point of contact with the internet. This makes it faster, reduces latency, and prevents threats earlier in the attack chain.
