Infoblox Informational | infoblox-informational.rpz.infoblox.local | Infoblox Informational: Infoblox Informational feed includes domains with low threat and confidence levels. These are for informational use per policy and sensitivity of the environment. This feed carries Newly Observed Emergent Domains (NOED). It's recommended to monitor with Allow-WithLog option for most users and have it in block mode for sensitive environments (as new domains are not mission critical for the most part and best to enable them when they are established for a longer time). |
