About Infoblox
Infoblox provides networking and security software for large organisations. Its main offering is unified DNS, DHCP and IP address management, known as DDI, which runs across on-premises, hybrid and multi-cloud environments. The company also sells preemptive threat defence that uses DNS to block malicious domains before connections are made. Customers include enterprises, service providers and public sector bodies, with over 6,000 organisations worldwide using its products. The Infoblox Platform combines four capabilities. These are infrastructure intelligence with agentless visibility, unified DDI services, preemptive security, and AI-driven operations. The platform is built on shared data and aims to give network, security and cloud teams one operational foundation. Infoblox says its approach stops threats earlier than detect-and-respond tools and reduces complexity by integrating with existing systems.
