| Latency | DNS-layer protection without routing user traffic through additional security gateways |
| Scale | Carrier-grade architecture designed to protect millions of subscribers and connected devices |
| Threats Stopped | Known malicious domains associated with malware, botnets, phishing, command-and-control communications and DNS tunnelling |
| Threat Intelligence | Continuously updated threat intelligence feeds, complemented by operator-defined blocklists and allowlists |
| Policy Actions | Allow, block or redirect DNS requests based on security intelligence, domain categories and configurable policies |
| Reporting | Visibility into DNS activity, detected threats, blocked requests, security trends and policy enforcement across subscribers and devices |
What it stops
Block access to known malicious domains associated with phishing, malware distribution and other online threats, helping protect subscribers before connections are established.
Disrupt malware communications by blocking DNS requests to known command-and-control domains, making it harder for compromised devices to communicate with attackers.
Stay ahead of evolving cyber threats with continuously updated threat intelligence, helping identify and block newly discovered malicious domains as they emerge.
Why DNS security
DNS is a critical part of mobile connectivity and a natural point to identify and disrupt cyber threats. By applying security policies at the DNS layer, operators can help protect subscribers from malicious destinations before connections are established.
Asavie Network Security integrates with the operator's DNS infrastructure to deliver centralised, intelligence-driven protection across connected devices, without requiring endpoint software or routing user traffic through additional security gateways.

FAQ
It uses the DNS resolvers in your network to detect and stop malicious activity. Reaching a command and control server, a malware download or an exfiltration site almost always starts with a DNS lookup, so blocking that lookup stops the attack early.
No. Asavie works in the DNS control plane, so it adds no latency to network traffic.
Phishing, malware distribution and known botnet command-and-control infrastructure, by blocking malicious DNS requests. Continuously updated threat intelligence helps address newly discovered threats.
No. There is no security software to install or update on devices. Every device with a SIM card is covered, whatever its operating system.
Threat feeds are updated continuously as exploits change. You can also add your own lists and configure policies by hand for local problems.
Yes. Asavie Analytics APIs let operators and businesses integrate security insights into their existing monitoring, reporting and analytics platforms, to build custom dashboards, generate reports and support security operations.
