About WatchGuard DNSWatch is a Cloud-based service adding DNS-level filtering to detect and block potentially dangerous connections and protect networks and employees from damaging attacks. WatchGuard analysts triage any critical alerts, following up with an easy-to-understand accounting that includes detailed insights about the potential infection. When the attack uses phishing, and an employee clicks the link, DNSWatch automatically redirects them away from the malicious site and offers resources that reinforce phishing education. Hackers rely on DNS to execute attacks on unsuspecting victims, so careful examination of DNS requests is a great way to find and ultimately intercept attacks! DNSWatch brings DNS-level filtering into our Total Security Suite, providing an added layer of security to stop malware infections. Unwitting attempts to connect to known malicious DNS addresses by your users are automatically blocked, and the user is seamlessly redirected to a safe landing page.
