Infoblox Mobile Endpoint is a lightweight mobile cloud service for sending queries over an encrypted channel. Mobile Endpoint communicates with Infoblox Threat Defense by using DNS over Transport Layer Security (DoT). Mobile Endpoint provides visibility into infected and compromised devices detected on the network (including Android, iOS, and ChromeOS), preventing DNS-based data exfiltration and other forms of DNS tunneling, and impedes device communications with botnets and their command-and-control infrastructure. Note that Mobile Endpoint is not a VPN client. 

The Mobile Endpoint client uses on-device VPN by default to intercept the DNS traffic, in case of iOS, the admin can also configure Extension Type as DNS Proxy (this setting is mentioned in the “Installing Mobile Endpoint” section, below).
