Infoblox Launches Infoblox IQ to Enable Agentic AI-Driven Network and Security Operations

Infoblox

Infoblox has unveiled Infoblox IQ, a next-generation agentic AI operations platform designed to transform how enterprises manage networking and security across hybrid environments. Built on authoritative DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (DDI) data, the platform introduces intelligent automation, conversational interfaces, and real-time analytics to streamline IT operations.

Infoblox IQ continuously analyzes vast volumes of DNS queries, DHCP leases, IP assignments, device activity, and security events, helping organizations rapidly detect issues, automate investigations, and take decisive action. The solution aims to address growing operational complexity as enterprises scale hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructures.

A key highlight of the launch is the integration of an agentic AI assistant and agentic actions, enabling teams to interact with network and security systems using natural language. This allows IT and security professionals to investigate threats, understand network conditions, and execute configuration changes without navigating multiple tools or dashboards.

“Infoblox IQ started with a simple belief: that the data Infoblox already holds provides one of the clearest views of what’s happening on an enterprise network,” said Mukesh Gupta, Chief Product Officer, Infoblox.

The company also introduced the Infoblox Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, which provides a standardized interface for integrating Infoblox intelligence with third-party AI agents and applications. This open protocol eliminates the need for custom integrations, enabling organizations to extend AI-driven automation seamlessly across their technology ecosystems.

Infoblox IQ leverages over 25 years of expertise in managing mission-critical network infrastructure. In early deployments, the platform demonstrated significant efficiency gains reducing over 504,000 operational events to just 24 prioritized actions and cutting investigation times from up to 90 minutes to near-instant insights.

For cybersecurity teams, Infoblox IQ reduces alert fatigue by correlating threats, users, devices, and network activity into a unified investigation pathway with clear remediation steps. Network teams benefit from proactive identification of performance, configuration, and capacity issues, along with guided fixes and audit-ready reporting.

“Infoblox IQ transforms infrastructure data from a system of record into a system of action, enabling organizations to move faster and unlock the full potential of AI-driven operations,” said Scott Harrell, President and CEO, Infoblox.

The platform introduces dedicated capabilities such as Infoblox IQ for Threat Defense, which automates DNS threat investigation, and Infoblox IQ for DDI, which provides real-time root cause analysis and resolution guidance for network operations.

Designed as a foundation for agentic and autonomous IT operations, Infoblox IQ ensures AI systems operate with accurate, continuously updated infrastructure data, enabling more reliable decision-making and governance.

Infoblox IQ for Threat Defense is expected to be generally available by the end of June 2026, with broader platform capabilities rolling out in fall 2026.
