Canadian Internet Registration Authority | Non Profit | 131 | $13M | Canada | Akamai | Akamai Nominum | DDoS Protection | 2017 | n/a | In 2017, Canadian Internet Registration Authority implemented Akamai Nominum for network/infrastructure security (DNS/DDoS protection). CIRA partnered with Nominum, now part of Akamai, to launch the D-Zone DNS Firewall service and ran a trial within six months, moving to live production three months after the trial, using Akamai Secure Internet Access Business to deliver DNS-based threat protection. The implementation centered on DNS firewall capabilities provided by Akamai Nominum and the D-Zone DNS Firewall service, including policy-based domain blocking, real-time threat intelligence feeds, and centralized DNS request inspection. Configuration emphasized resolver-level enforcement and orchestration of blocking policies, with reporting and monitoring modules to surface blocked queries and threat trends for operational teams. Operational coverage focused on network and infrastructure security across Canada, meeting data-sovereignty requirements while protecting internet users. Outcomes reported by CIRA included protecting more than 1.5 million Canadians and a reported 90% reduction in desktops impacted by spear-phishing, reflecting a shift to DNS-layer prevention and consolidated governance of DNS security functions. | |

Nominium | Communications | 200 | $25M | United States | Akamai | Akamai Nominum | DDoS Protection | 2014 | n/a | In 2014, Nominium implemented Akamai Nominum on its website, deploying the Akamai Nominum application in the "" Apps Category to manage web-facing DNS and site delivery functions. The implementation was centered on embedding Akamai Nominum into the public web stack to provide authoritative DNS services and request routing for the corporate site, with configuration applied at the DNS zone and edge policy layers. The deployment included configuration of DNS record management, name resolution policies, and traffic steering capabilities typical of Akamai Nominum deployments, with automation applied to zone updates and configuration pushes through scripted provisioning workflows. Nominium’s infrastructure and network teams operated core configuration modules, and standard operational practices governed change windows and rollback procedures for DNS and routing changes. Operational scope was limited to Nominium’s public website infrastructure, integrating Akamai Nominum with the company’s existing web hosting and content delivery paths, and instrumenting DNS governance across the platform. Governance focused on role-based access for DNS changes, scheduled configuration reviews, and documented runbooks for incident response related to name resolution and site reachability. | |

QTnet Japan | Communications | 1034 | $474M | Japan | Akamai | Akamai Nominum | DDoS Protection | 2017 | n/a | In 2017, QTNet Japan implemented Akamai Nominum Vantio CacheServe to strengthen DNS security and resilience for its BBIQ broadband service. The deployment explicitly targeted network/infrastructure security (DNS/DDoS protection) to mitigate large DDoS and pseudo random subdomain attacks and to improve DNS resolution for regional subscribers. QTNet configured Akamai Nominum components to provide DNS caching, query inspection and filtering, response rate limiting, and authoritative DNS hardening consistent with DNS protection use cases. The implementation of Nominum Vantio CacheServe focused on reducing abusive query load at resolver and edge layers while improving cache hit rates and resolution performance for end users. The Akamai Nominum deployment was integrated with QTNet operational DNS and resolver infrastructure across its network edge and central DNS operations, with operational coverage centered on network operations and security teams supporting BBIQ customers in Japan. Implementation scope emphasized edge DNS acceleration and mitigation at service provider points of presence to protect subscriber-facing resolution paths. Rollout and governance were managed by QTNet network and security operations with phased activation across sites to limit service disruption and validate protections. Outcomes reported from the implementation included faster DNS query resolution, improved network reliability, and reduced latency and service outages for millions of regional subscribers. | |
