Manual configuration audits are inefficient
Managing hundreds of DNS filtering rules in Control D exposes companies to critical human errors. An overlooked block or an overly permissive rule can compromise your entire network, and manual audits are no longer sufficient against evolving threats.
Main negative impacts:
Invisible security flaws
Misconfigured filtering rules let threats pass through that manual quarterly audits never catch in time.
Compliance drift
Policies change, but controls remain static, creating a dangerous gap between the rule and reality.
Security team overload
Spending hours manually checking Control D logs and rules diverts your experts from high-value tasks.
Swiftask deploys specialized AI agents that monitor your Control D configurations continuously. They alert you instantly to any anomaly or non-compliance.
BEFORE / AFTER
What changes with Swiftask
Traditional manual audit
Once a quarter, an expert exports Control D configurations, checks each rule on a spreadsheet, and attempts to correlate logs. Between audits, vulnerabilities accumulate undetected.
Continuous audit with Swiftask
Your AI agent analyzes every Control D configuration change in real time. If a rule violates your security policies, you are alerted immediately with a remediation recommendation.
Automated Control D audit: 4 key steps
1
STEP 1 : Secure connection
Connect Swiftask to your Control D instance via secure API for read-only access.
2
STEP 2 : Define policies
Establish your baseline compliance and security rules in Swiftask.
3
STEP 3 : Proactive analysis
The AI continuously scans your rules, filters, and profiles to detect any deviations.
4
STEP 4 : Reporting and alerting
Receive automated audit reports and immediate alerts if a risk is detected.
Capabilities of your AI agent
The agent evaluates rule consistency, blocklist relevance, and exposure to known threats.
- Target connector: The agent performs the right actions in control d based on event context.
- Automated actions: Automatic filtering rule scan, compliance verification against internal policies, detection of obsolete rules, comparison with security best practices.
- Native governance: All analyses are centralized in a Swiftask dashboard for total visibility of your DNS security posture.
Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.
Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-control-d@swiftask.ai ). You keep full visibility on every action and every sent message.
Key takeaway: The agent automates repetitive decisions and leaves high-value actions to your teams.
