Success of Aura
Whalebone’s suite of products, including Aura (for telco operators), Immunity (for enterprises and public institutions), and Peacemaker (for regional ISPs), has proven instrumental in defending against threats to DNS.

Beyond that, it aids government initiatives with telcos to prevent citizens from online threats. Aura’s deployment among Tier-1 telcos has significantly enabled them to provide secure, encrypted DNS services to their customers to protect them against malware, phishing, ransomware, and other cyber threats. This success is further highlighted by numerous customer testimonials.
