Avoid Falling Victim to Increasingly Sophisticated Threat Actors
"A friend recommended the National Security Agency (NSA); I started there in 1995. At the NSA, I was fortunate to have a wide range of opportunities and explore several career areas, from traditional mathematics to strategic planning. I went in and out of management several times. My final project at NSA was a large-scale DNS analytics program to understand how threats manifested in DNS records."
"I joined Infoblox to help them grow their ability to detect threats within DNS and protect their global customer base through what is now often called protective DNS. I run a global threat research team where we try to find bad guys on the internet and figure out ways to track the domains they use for scams, malware, and other malicious purposes."
Dr. Renée Burton transitioned from mathematics to a cybersecurity career at the National Security Agency in 1995, working across mathematics, strategic planning, and management. Her final NSA project was a large-scale DNS analytics program focused on how threats appeared in DNS records. She joined Infoblox to enhance DNS-based threat detection and provide protective DNS services to a global customer base. She now leads a global threat research team that identifies malicious actors and tracks domains used for scams, malware, and other malicious activities. Threat actors are becoming more sophisticated and exploit DNS and other misconfigurations to operate undetected, demanding stronger defenses and intelligence.
