DNS Services: Managed DNS and Enterprise Solutions
Confidently outsource your DNS to a trusted managed DNS provider with years of proven enterprise experience.
Reliable domain name system (DNS) service is crucial to doing business on the internet. Without it, your websites and online applications are vulnerable to outages, attacks, and email disruptions. A single DNS attack is estimated to cost a business an average of $1M. The long-term risks of inferior DNS service can be even more costly, resulting in customer frustration and negative brand associations.
CSC's managed DNS services are provided through our partnership with Vercara, which maintains the most robust DNS infrastructure on the planet. Vercara has over 20 years' experience and has provided its customers with 100% uptime. Their trusted authoritative network uses BGP and IP AnyCast routing schemes to manage billions of global DNS queries a day via points of presence (POPs) across the world.
Why CSC’s managed DNS services?
