How CleanINTERNET DNS Stops DNS Tunneling Before It Starts

Modern cyber threats are increasingly stealthy. A favorite tactic? DNS tunneling—a method used to bypass traditional network security controls by hiding malicious traffic inside DNS queries and responses. This can be done by embedding or encoding command and control instructions or data within subdomains or DNS record fields like TXT, CNAME or other rarely used record types.

Outdated Systems and Modern Attacks: Ireland's Cyber Reckoning Has Arrived
