Today’s complex government networks must deliver the utmost security and reliability to protect against potential national security threats. A poorly architected DNS service infrastructure poses one of the greatest security vulnerabilities for any government network. Likewise, choosing the wrong DNS solution can turn an otherwise well-architected service infrastructure into a leaky bucket capable of undermining data integrity and network stability. More than any other networks, government networks demand the highest level of monitoring and visibility, security fortification, alerting and blocking to ensure appropriate corrective action.
Government Networks Have Unique Needs
All too often, we read about machines that have been taken over by malware, cyber attacks or other malicious events. In many ways, for government organizations, the information superhighway has become a virtual minefield. Government networks face this new global problem as much as any other network. Not only do they have to support their users’ performing the tasks necessary to complete their missions with uninterrupted Internet access, but they also have to ensure that this access remains uncompromised. When a user at a government organization goes to a Website (on multiple types of networks), they need to know that the content they receive is exactly what they were expecting. And just like subscribers on a Service Provider network, they need to be protected from known and suspected sites used to break into computers. All of this has to be done with the highest possible level of performance and availability. Government organizations also need to be absolutely certain that they can comply with DNSSEC and IPv6 mandates.
