In this section, you will find video tutorials for installing, configuring, and managing DNS Patrol. (Coming soon)
A recursive DNS resolver is a server that your device (computer, mobile) turns to with a request to translate a domain name into an IP address. If it has the information in its cache, it returns it immediately. If not, the recursive resolver contacts other DNS servers (root and authoritative) and obtains the required IP address, which it then stores in its cache and passes on to your device.
DGA (Domain Generation Algorithm) is a method that attackers use to create a large number of random domains for covert communication with malware. DNS PATROL recognizes and blocks these domains before they cause harm.
Phishing is a fraudulent attempt to obtain sensitive data, such as passwords or payment information, using fake emails, SMS, or websites. DNS PATROL can detect and block these fraudulent domains before the user clicks on them.
DNS tunneling exploits the DNS protocol for covert communication with an attacker – for example, to transfer data out of the network. Standard security measures often fail to detect this. DNS PATROL recognizes and blocks such attempts.
