ABOUT THIS EVENT

Most cyberattacks touch DNS at some point, whether attackers are establishing command-and-control (C2) channels, exfiltrating data via tunneling, or rotating through newly registered domains (NRDs) and encrypted protocols (DoH/DoT) to evade perimeter controls. In hybrid cloud environments, DNS traffic often falls into an operational blind spot between networking and security teams, leaving no single owner to inspect it end-to-end.

This roundtable brings together network security leaders from New York financial services and insurance firms to compare strategies for securing DNS across on-premises infrastructure and AWS environments.

Key Discussion Topics:

  • Real-Time Threat Detection: Detecting DNS tunneling, Domain Generation Algorithms (DGAs), NRDs, and encrypted DNS evasion techniques before data exfiltration occurs.

  • Hybrid Policy Enforcement: Maintaining consistent DNS security policies across data centers, edge environments, and AWS Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewalls.

  • Cross-Functional Governance: Defining operational ownership between Network, Security, and Cloud Infrastructure teams to reduce dwell time and speed up incident response.

  • Automated Response & SOC Integration: Feeding high-fidelity DNS threat intelligence into SIEM/SOAR platforms for rapid containment.

  • Regulatory & Audit Scrutiny: Navigating auditor expectations and compliance standards (including NYDFS 23 NYCRR 500 and SEC mandates) regarding DNS monitoring and resilience.
