Why DNS Security Matters

DNS is often called the "phone book of the internet," but it is also one of the most frequently targeted components in modern cyberattacks. From DNS hijacking and cache poisoning to amplification attacks, threat actors exploit DNS to redirect traffic, intercept credentials, and take down services.

Implementing DNSSEC, monitoring for unusual query patterns, and using encrypted DNS transports like DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) or DNS-over-TLS (DoT) are essential steps for any organization serious about security.
