The Cisco Umbrella package that supports selective proxy for inspection of traffic from risky domains is SIG Advantage. SIG stands for Secure Internet Gateway, and it is a cloud-based service that provides comprehensive web security and threat intelligence. SIG Advantage includes all the features of DNS Security Advantage, such as DNS-layer protection, intelligent proxy, and cloud-delivered firewall, plus additional features such as full proxy, SSL decryption, advanced malware protection, and data loss prevention. Selective proxy is a feature that allows Umbrella to route risky domain requests to a proxy for deeper URL and file inspection, without impacting the performance or latency of legitimate traffic. Selective proxy is based on the reputation of the domains, which are classified into three categories: good, bad, and grey. Good domains are allowed without proxying, bad domains are blocked at the DNS layer, and grey domains are proxied for further inspection. Selective proxy is available in both DNS Security Advantage and SIG Advantage packages, but only SIG Advantage offers full proxy for all web traffic, which provides more granular control and visibility over web transactions and file types.
