BGPMon Joins OpenDNS

Dear BGPmon.net user,

I’m excited to announce that BGPmon has been acquired by OpenDNS. OpenDNS is a leading cloud-delivered network security company known for engineering predictive intelligence technology that stops malicious activity before it can threaten a network.

Over the last few years BGPmon has grown from a community service into a successful business that helps thousands of network engineers from around the world monitor their networks. Throughout this journey, we’ve developed close relationships with many of you and together, worked on some truly fascinating cases.

Becoming a part of OpenDNS is a logical next step for BGPmon. With its engineering resources, massive scale and cloud delivery model, OpenDNS is the right direction to continue growing the BGPmon service. I’m confident that moving forward BGPmon will only get better.

The transition plan is straightforward. OpenDNS will invest in building out the service even more but also is committed to keeping the free features free. Simply put, nothing regarding the service will change other than we’ll continue adding new functionality.

On a personal note, I’d like to thank all of you for your continued support and encouragement. I am excited for the changes ahead and personally being a part of BGPmon’s next phase. I have no doubt this move will make BGPmon a more complete network monitoring solution.

Kind regards,
Andree Toonk
