DNS Security
What is DNS (Domain Name System) Security?
DNS filtering is a common way of filtering web traffic to protect users from phishing attacks, malware distribution sites, or other potentially damaging internet activity on a corporate network. DNS security is the practice of protecting DNS infrastructure from cyberattacks in order to keep it performing quickly and reliably. An effective DNS security strategy incorporates a number of overlapping defenses, including establishing redundant DNS servers, applying security protocols like DNSSEC, and requiring rigorous DNS logging.
DNS servers are vulnerable to a broad spectrum of attacks, including spoofing, amplification, DoS (Denial of Service), or the interception of private personal information. And since DNS is an integral part of most Internet requests, it can be a prime target for attacks.
DNS attacks are frequently deployed in conjunction with other cyberattacks to distract security teams from the true target. therefore, an organization needs to be able to quickly mitigate DNS attacks.
