DE.CM-01.271

Does your organization have a system in place to monitor DNS, BGP, and other critical network services for suspicious or malicious activities?

Explanation

Monitoring network services like DNS (Domain Name System) and BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is crucial for detecting potential security threats such as DNS hijacking, BGP route hijacking, or other network-based attacks. These services are fundamental to internet connectivity and can be exploited to redirect traffic, perform man-in-the-middle attacks, or cause service disruptions if compromised. Evidence of compliance could include documentation of monitoring tools deployed (such as DNS query logs, BGP route analyzers, or network traffic anomaly detection systems), alert configurations, incident response procedures specific to network service anomalies, and recent monitoring reports showing detection capabilities.

ResponseHub is the product I wish I had when I was a CTO

Previously I was co-founder and CTO of Progression, a VC backed HR-tech startup used by some of the biggest names in tech.

As our sales grew, security questionnaires quickly became one of my biggest pain-points. They were confusing, hard to delegate and arrived like London busses - 3 at a time!

I'm building ResponseHub so that other teams don't have to go through this. Leave the security questionnaires to us so you can get back to closing deals, shipping product and building your team.
