Empowers IT teams to block threats earlier, reduce manual rule maintenance and accelerate time to protection
Natively integrates into AWS Network Firewall and deployable via AWS Management Console for seamless activation and management
Extends DNS-based threat intelligence across AWS environments, enabling consistent perimeter enforcement and reducing exposure to phishing, C2 and data exfiltration
DUBAI, UAE, 15th December, 2025 –
Infoblox, the leader in uniting networking, security and cloud with a protective DDI platform, announced the launch of Infoblox AWS Marketplace managed rules for AWS Network Firewall. This new integration strengthens organizations’ cloud security posture with predictive, DNS-based threat intelligence natively within their existing Amazon Web Services (AWS) environments.
Infoblox managed rules deliver curated rule groups powered by Infoblox’s DNS threat intelligence. These rules enable AWS Network Firewall to detect and block connections to malicious domains before they impact workloads, providing preemptive protection at the enterprise edge.
“Attackers are moving faster than ever, using automation and AI to bypass traditional security defenses and compromise cloud workloads,” said Mukesh Gupta, Chief Product Officer, Infoblox. “DNS is the most effective way to provide preemptive protection. With Infoblox managed rules, we’re empowering organizations to stop threats on average 68.4 days before other solutions even know they exist. The integration with AWS Network Firewall brings predictive, DNS-based threat intelligence to the perimeter, helping organizations deploy and operate workloads securely in a cloud-native manner.”
Key Benefits
• Preemptive protection at the network perimeter: Infoblox managed rules enable AWS Network Firewall to block malicious domains before they can connect to or impact workloads. Customers using Infoblox threat feeds report a fivefold reduction in downstream firewall alerts.
• Predictive, DNS-based threat intelligence: Powered by more than 70 billion DNS queries daily across enterprise and service provider networks, curated rule groups are automatically updated to protect against emerging threats.
• Native AWS integration: Customers can subscribe to and activate Infoblox rule groups directly from the AWS Network Firewall console. No additional infrastructure, manual rule writing, or maintenance is required, accelerating time to protection by more than 90 percent.
• Simplified operations: Automated rule updates significantly reduce configuration overhead. Infoblox automation saves organizations an average of 500 SOC analyst hours per month through automated rule and feed management.
• Actionable visibility: AWS-native alerts and logs provide confirmation that threats are being blocked without increasing alert fatigue or monitoring complexity.
Closing Critical Security Gaps, Quickly
Modern attackers increasingly use DNS to deliver phishing payloads, establish command-and-control (C2) channels, and exfiltrate data. Traditional perimeter defenses are often reactive and offer limited DNS protection. Infoblox managed rules bring preemptive DNS-based security directly into AWS Network Firewall, allowing organizations to stay ahead of threats rather than respond after compromise.
The Limited Preview version allows customers to enable the capability quickly and provide feedback, with a subset of Infoblox threat intelligence signals optimized for AWS Network Firewall. A full set of Infoblox threat intelligence signals is planned for general availability.
According to the IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report 2024, the average breach costs U.S. organizations over $10 million. Through this integration, Infoblox and AWS help customers reduce exposure and achieve faster protection against costly breaches.
