What is DNS Security?

DNS is a critical internet infrastructure component that translates domain names to IP addresses. DNS security encompasses DNSSEC (cryptographic signing of DNS records), protection against cache poisoning, secure zone transfer configuration, monitoring for DNS hijacking, and proper configuration of records like SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and CAA. Compromised DNS can redirect users to malicious sites, intercept emails, or enable man-in-the-middle attacks.
