DomainTools Announces Predictive Threat Feeds - Powering Preemptive Exposure Management
SEATTLE, July 22, 2025 /CNW/ -- DomainTools, the global leader in domain and DNS threat intelligence, today announced the release of Real-Time Feeds, which will transform users' security posture from reactive analysis to proactive detection and mitigation. Supported by coverage of 97% of the Internet and seamless integrations with leading security platforms, Real-Time Feeds grant visibility into potentially risky infrastructure faster than anyone. Security teams will discover new, high-risk domains and hostnames as they're created, enabling them to mitigate these threats before they can be weaponized.
"Centripetal leads the industry in operationalizing global threat intelligence to proactively protect our CleanINTERNET customers from all known cyber threats. DomainTools has been a valued strategic partner for years, and in 2024, we leveraged over 99.9% of their feed data to prevent domain-related incidents—contributing to our exceptionally low false positive rate across 1.2 trillion indicators," said Dave Ahn, Chief Architect and VP at Centripetal. "Through close collaboration this year, we were among the first to adopt DomainTools' Real Time Feeds and API, reducing the time from threat discovery to active prevention to under one minute. This level of speed and accuracy effectively closes the window for domain-based attacks. DomainTools has set a new standard for real-time, high-fidelity intelligence—critical to any modern, proactive defense strategy."
In addition to proactive defense through blocking, Real-Time Feeds also accelerate incident response and threat detection. Security Operations Center (SOC), Network Operations Centers, and Incident Response (IR) teams can leverage feeds to spot and respond to devices connecting to new or high-risk domains, all within the context of their Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP), or Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) solution. And with the DomainTools Risk Score powering feeds such as Real-Time Domain Hotlist, teams can confidently prioritize threats based on their risk level, reducing alert fatigue.
"We are confident that Real-Time Feeds will transform our customers' ability to achieve a proactive security posture," said Dan White, Principal Product Manager at DomainTools. "Any security team can benefit from the speed and coverage our feeds now provide, putting them in a position of proactive defense, and enabling them to get even more value out of their existing investments in security tooling like TIPs and SIEMs. Our new feeds and real-time delivery enable significantly faster visibility into emerging threats compared to traditional threat intelligence."
Moreover, Real-Time Feeds offer powerful support for critical security operations, including fraud prevention and brand protection. With instant visibility into rapidly-changing online threats such as domains that mimic an organization, its supply chain, or partners, security teams can swiftly detect and respond to impersonation attempts, safeguarding brand integrity and reducing risk.

Bell completes subsea fibre optic cable deployment to Fogo and Change Islands Français
Funded in partnership with the Government of Canada under the Universal Broadband Fund (UBF), the project brings future-ready, Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) technology to Change Islands and Fogo Island—an emerging international tourism destination known for its sustainable development and community-owned hospitality. "Bringing fibre to Fogo and Change Islands is a major engineering achievement and a proud moment for our team. This project reflects Bell's commitment to connecting even the most remote communities with world-class broadband, unlocking new opportunities for residents, businesses, and visitors alike." — Mark McDonald, EVP and Chief Technology Officer, Bell "Today, access to reliable, high-speed Internet is a necessity, no matter where you live in Canada. The deployment of this subsea fibre optic cable system marks a major connectivity milestone for Fogo and Change Islands, making it easier for folks to grow an online business, get access to essential services, and stay connected with their loved ones." — The Honourable Buckley Belanger, Secretary of State (Rural Development) Bell deployed over 16 km of rugged subsea cable across challenging terrain to bring world-class Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) technology to some of Canada's most culturally rich and geographically distinct island communities. This is more than infrastructure – it's about enabling communities to thrive in a digital world. By delivering reliable, high-speed connectivity, Bell is helping to unlock new opportunities for residents, support local businesses, and strengthen access to essential services in Fogo and Change Islands. Project Highlights Subsea cable deployment: A 24-count double-armour marine fibre optic cable was installed in two segments: from Farewell to Change Islands (7.25 km) and from Change Islands to Fogo Island (8.8 km), with maximum depths of 49m and 44m respectively. Environmental stewardship: The project followed rigorous environmental assessments, including marine biology studies and habitat evaluations, ensuring minimal impact to sensitive ecosystems. Innovative engineering: Side-scan sonar and articulated pipe systems were used to map the seabed and protect the cable in surf zones and rocky terrain. The new fibre infrastructure replaces the region's dependence on microwave links, which will now serve as a backup transport system. This upgrade positions Fogo and Change Islands for long-term digital growth by enhancing support for year-round tourism, remote work, and access to essential services. Bell aims to have the necessary distribution infrastructure operational by late fall 2025, with plans to begin offering customers access to the upgraded service shortly thereafter.

AOL ends its dial-up service, an early internet relic still used in some remote areas
AOL is discontinuing its dial-up service, which helped millions of households connect to the web during the internet's formative years and was instantly recognizable for its beep-laden, scratch-heavy ring tone in the 1990s and early 2000s. The company, which once dominated as the world's largest internet provider, confirmed the move to CBC News on Sunday, saying it would discontinue dial-up as a subscription option on Sept. 30 "as we innovate to meet the needs of today's digital landscape." Dial-up services were a mainstay of the early internet — as famously depicted in the 1998 romantic comedy You've Got Mail — and involved using a phone line to connect devices to the web. Those of a certain age will recall that this meant choosing between your landline and your internet access. The company, which offered the service to customers in Canada and the U.S., didn't offer details about its existing dial-up clients. With much-speedier broadband internet access now the standard for web connection in North America, the end of dial-up service raises the question of who was still using it. "There are many parts of rural Canada that still do not have reliable access or any access to high-speed internet connectivity. And for them, dial-up is their only alternative," said technology analyst Carmi Levy in an interview with CBC News. "There are a number of regional or local players across the country that still provide low-cost dial-up access. The problem here is that the base, the internet as we know it, is no longer built for dial-up access. And so it's a technology that time really has passed by," Levy said. According to a CRTC report published earlier this year, 95 per cent of Canadians have access to high-speed internet. But broadband coverage in the country's three territories, as well as in rural areas and on First Nations reserves, is still catching up with the rest of Canada. CBC News reached out to the CRTC to ask how many Canadians are still making use of dial-up services, which falls under the "fixed internet" umbrella that the regulator tracks. Data from the U.S. Census Bureau estimated that about 163,000 households were using dial-up exclusively for internet service in 2023. "This isn't gonna affect a lot of people, but if you're one of those people who simply never transitioned off, it's pretty seismic," added Levy. "It means that at the end of September, you're losing the only access to the internet that you've ever known." Canada's major telecoms are scaling up fibre-optic networks for internet connectivity because they're capable of transferring data at high speeds and tend to be cost-effective. Satellite services — including SpaceX's Starlink — are also sometimes used for high-speed internet in rural and remote areas. Dana Ditomaso, a technology analyst in Victoria, B.C., noted that satellite coverage isn't always reliable or fulsome in less populated areas. "Especially if it's mountainous or there's a lot of trees, even satellite internet isn't going to work all that well because you need a clear line to the satellite," she noted. That's where the gap filled by dial-up services might exist — but Ditomaso doesn't expect any nostalgia-fuelled revival of the technology. "It's not gonna be like vinyl records, and people are like, 'I really want that dial-up experience,' you know?" she said.

AOL will stop offering dial-up internet service after more than 30 years in business
AOL, an internet pioneer that brought millions of Americans online for the first time, is discontinuing its dial-up service next month. (Thomas Fuller/SOPA Images/Shutterstock via CNN Newsource) New York — AOL, an internet pioneer that brought millions of Americans online for the first time, is discontinuing its dial-up service next month. The company that brought the internet to the masses in the 1990s and early 2000s recently posted a notice on its website saying that it 'routinely evaluates its products and has decided to discontinue Dial-up Internet' on September 30, ending more than three decades of operations. Even as broadband and wireless internet became the predominant way people access the internet, AOL never stopped offering its sluggish service that connects people to its service over a landline. However, about 160,000 people connect to the internet through their landline telephone service, data from the 2023 US Census shows. From 'You've Got Mail' to 'Sex and the City,' AOL's internet was a mainstay in 1990s pop culture and engrained in Americans' lives, especially for the tones, beeps and screeches it regularly provided. And the company regularly flooded people's mailboxes with CDs offering free trials to access the internet. But similar to dial-up internet, AOL is also a shell of itself. The brand's popular internet messaging service, AIM, was shut down in 2017 and AOL itself has gone through many parent companies. It once merged with CNN's former owner, Time Warner, in a famously disastrous acquisition. It is now owned by a private equity firm, which also owns Yahoo. AOL was formerly known as America Online. A spokesperson said the 'change does not impact the numerous other valued products and services that these subscribers are able to access and enjoy as part of their plans.'
