OP here. Sorry that it felt that way to you, and curious why? Because it is from a corporate blog? The material answers the question posited in the title, IMO, but curious why it came off as an Ad to you. Mind sharing?

Well I guess because of this part:

>ExtraHop Reveal(x) automatically detects unusual changes in DNS traffic based on device behavior over time, surfacing queries that should be investigated. A defender can investigate the DNS query from the detection card.

While it does answer the question it also presents one of the solutions as something it has stake in. Imagine a McDonalds blog post about ways to stop hunger:

How to stop hunger! Hunger is when your body wants food. Here are 3 ways of stopping that feeling:

1) Cook some food and eat it

2) Go out to eat

3) Go to McDonalds and have a Big Macâ„¢

More like: "What is hunger?", where your last step is the only proposed solution.

The article does contains interesting information, but then seeing that it is only an ad is a bit disappointing.
