Centralized DNS security has simplified subnet policies and now protects users across networks
The scheduled report feature for Infoblox BloxOne Threat Defense needs improvement. The scheduled reports are sent with a standardized template from Infoblox. It would be highly beneficial if we had customization options for the scheduled reports. This is a key feature that many enterprise customers would be seeking, especially when they need to present reports to management. The reports should include pie charts or bar graphs indicating what traffic is coming and going through the system. Those chart types and drill-down details are also essential for the IT team. We need more customized reports that can provide different reports for the management team and for the IT team. The current reports are available but are not as helpful as customers need. We are currently dedicating logs manually and doing this as a service for our customers, but this should be handled by Infoblox BloxOne Threat Defense. Infoblox BloxOne Threat Defense is a bit expensive.
