DNSSEC Misconfigurations: Safeguarding the Modern Digital Landscape

by

The Domain Name System (DNS) translates domain names into IP addresses, acting as the internet’s address book. DNSSEC is a suite of extensions to DNS that authenticates these translations, ensuring that users connect to legitimate websites rather than to rogue or malicious ones. It uses cryptographic signatures to verify that responses to DNS queries have not been altered, effectively protecting against several forms of cyberattacks.

Domain Generation Algorithm (DGA) Attacks: Understanding, Mitigating, and Defending

by

Domain Generation Algorithm (DGA) attacks involve the use of algorithms to create numerous, often random-looking, domain names. These generated domains allow malware to connect to its C&C servers, keeping malicious activities in motion even as individual domains are blocked or taken down. By consistently creating new domains, DGA-based malware increases its resilience, complicates detection, and challenges security defences.
