How DNSFilter and Blumira Are Helping Organizations Stay Ahead of an Accelerating Threat Landscape

Looking at security by the numbers, the math can be daunting: DNSFilter's 2026 Annual Security Report clocked the average user encounters 66 malicious domains every day in 2025, up from 29 the year before. Today’s attacks are also picking up speed: of those 66 domains, two-thirds come from domains that didn't exist 24 hours earlier… which is at least 24 hours faster than any static blocklist can react. Upcoming Blumira research finds those threats are increasingly complex, including multiple target vectors and stages across the MITRE ATT&CK framework.

Increased volume and accelerating speed of attack introduces a compound challenge for security teams trying to keep up. A strong security strategy requires a multi-layered approach that starts with prevention, blocking threats before they ever reach an organization. That has to be paired with a clear view of the full workspace in order to catch and shut down whatever slips past quickly, because the window to act keeps shrinking. Which is why Blumira and DNSFilter have combined forces to make defense-in-depth easier for overloaded teams, with a new native integration made possible by Blumira’s recent HTTP ingest release.

Some organizations scope their security programs down to the most-frequent breach targets, endpoints and identity – a reasonable instinct, as the overwhelming majority of attacks include either (or both) elements. But attacks don't sit still. They leapfrog systems and spread through services from initial access footholds, through lateral movement, to data walking out the door and attackers covering their trail on the way out. You can only follow that trail if you can see the whole workspace, not only the two busiest doors.

Together, DNSFilter’s domain intelligence and predictive blocking supports threat prevention and Blumira's security operations platform ties that intelligence together for rapid threat detection and mitigation. With this new integration, every request DNSFilter handles, allowed or blocked, lands in Blumira as detection signal and context. Prevention and detection operate in tandem, keeping teams secure without reliance on a complete in-house SOC.

For lean teams who need security for their whole stack, the playbook just got easier: active prevention before malicious activity reaches your users and resources, and complete continuous monitoring for everything else.
