“Recent attacks and current events have
demonstrated that securing critical DNS infrastructure remains an afterthought,
oftentimes because fast Internet performance is the priority. But you shouldn’t
have to compromise between performance and security.” said Nicolai Bezsonoff,
General Manager of Neustar Security Solutions. “Neustar UltraRecursive
addresses this dilemma by delivering fast connectivity and reliability to users
while providing security teams peace-of-mind by stopping threats at the first
point of contact.”

An organization’s expanded network perimeter
has made it difficult for security teams to consistently maintain optimal
network performance and visibility into potential threats, making it elementary
for malware attacks to bypass security protocols. These attacks are time-consuming
and expensive for security teams to remediate, which may result in network
degradation, potential downtime and brand damage. However, security teams can
identify and eradicate these issues with Neustar UltraRecursive before their
users even begin to notice them.
