Risks from DNS Attacks
• Impersonate your web site• Redirect your phone calls• Man-in-the-middle (password theft)• Reroute or block your email• Disrupt your network, application services• Attack vectors for malware (data theft)• Denial of service

Risk Reduction To Date
• Improving weaknesses in DNS software– Patching software defects– Limiting cache poisoning opportunities
• Improve operational best practices– Restrict access to DNS recursers– Install anti-IP spoofing filters
• Improve host security– Anti-virus, anti-malware defenses

DNSSEC
• Cryptographically sign DNS records– Also the absence of records
• Maintains DNS architecture– Hierarchical, distributed signatures
• Significant risk reduction, if used widely– Protects you (www.school.edu)– Protects your users (www.bank.com)

What Can Be Done Now?
• Discover local implications– How do you manage DNS? What tools are used?– What impact would DNSSEC have?– Do your vendors support it?– Can you servers handle DNSSEC overhead?
• Begin building expertise, experience– Sign a test zone– Deploy a test DNSSEC recurser
• Deployment– Sign your zones– Utilize DNSSEC-enabled recurser with DLV
