DNS Server & Security
Overview
Domain name system (DNS) is a naming system for computers connected to the Internet or private network to resolve a domain name to an IP address or vice versa.
Exploitation of DNS can trick users into visiting fakes websites, downloading malicious software, and much more – this is why DNS has security controls.
Create a DNS server through a virtual lab and harden the DNS Server with security best practices.
