Louisville, Kentucky – LightChange today announced the launch of IP Fortress, a purpose-built appliance for DNS, DHCP, and IP Address Management (DDI) running on ISP-grade hardened infrastructure, with a managed services wrapper. It is built for ISPs and operators who need enterprise-grade network management without standing up an enterprise team to run it.
DDI is the layer most networks depend on and few have time to manage well. When DNS, DHCP, or address management drifts, the failures are hard to trace and slow to fix. IP Fortress consolidates all three onto hardened appliances benchmarked to CIS, with failover pairs so service continues if one unit goes down. Early ISP and enterprise adopters have run at 99.9 percent uptime while cutting DDI-related security incidents by 75 percent.
What comes with it:
- DNS, DHCP, and IPAM integrated on a single hardened appliance
- CIS benchmarked operating systems
- Failover pairs for continuous service
- Weekly vulnerability scans and monthly penetration testing
- A Command Center dashboard for visibility across the deployment
- A 7-year hardware replacement plan with on-site swap support
"We started with the DDI foundation ISPs already depend on and built the security in from the first layer up," said Michael O'Coners, CEO of LightChange. "An ISP shouldn't have to choose between a network they can trust and a budget they can defend. IP Fortress is how we give them both, and we manage it so their people can stay focused on their customers."
IP Fortress is available now for ISP, energy, healthcare, finance, and critical-infrastructure deployments, with hardening, management, and ongoing security validation included in every package.
