About DNSDB™
The internet relies heavily on the DNS, and cyber criminals are not exempt. Farsight Security’s Passive DNS database (DNSDB™) provides a fact-based perspective on the configuration and content of the global DNS as observed through its industry-leading Passive DNS sensor array. DNSDB™ can answer questions, such as:

➤ Where did this domain name point to in the past? 
➤ What domain names are hosted on a given IP address? 
➤ What domain names use a given nameserver? 
➤ What fully qualified domain names exist below a delegation point?

Security analysts, fraud investigators, Security Operations Center (SOC) and Incident Response (IR) teams use DNSDB™ to investigate incidents and cybercrime, protect their assets and monitor online activity. DNSDB™ is engineered and operated by the world’s leading DNS experts and is the largest, most proven historical collection of Passive DNS data available in the market today.
