# Contractor Protection

Department of Defense (DoD) contractors have access to sensitive U.S. Government information and are frequently targeted by nation-state actors to gain access to USG information and intellectual property. Once you sign a contract with the DoD, you become an attractive target to our adversaries. Fortunately, you don't have to defend against them alone.**NSA offers no-cost cybersecurity services to any company that contracts with DoD (sub or prime) or has access to non-public DoD information.** NSA's services help protect against some of the most common nation-state exploitation vectors and are powered by unique, non-public indicators of known malicious activity derived from NSA's signals intelligence, cybersecurity analytic expertise, and engagements with partners. These services include Protective DNS (a DNS filter), attack surface management, and access to non-public, DIB-specific NSA threat intelligence.

# Types of Services

### Protective DNS

Domain Name System (DNS) is essentially the address book of the internet and redirects a human-readable URL such as www.NSA.gov to the appropriate machine-readable IP address. Because DNS is so central to the internet, it’s frequently hijacked by adversaries to install malware and gain initial access to sensitive systems.Protective DNS (PDNS) is a DNS filter which blocks users from connecting to malicious or suspicious domains. To date, NSA’s PDNS program has blocked 1 billion malicious or suspicious domains, including nation-state spearphishing, malware, botnets, and ransomware activity. NSA’s PDNS program is provided through Akamai’s GovShield and powered with a continuously evolving combination of proprietary and governmental domain blocklists.To learn more, review our PDNS Cybersecurity Information or watch our PDNS YouTube video.
