DNS is critical to all networks and therefore all businesses.  Nearly all applications leverage DNS for proper operation, yet most organizations do very little to secure their DNS infrastructure.  At this meeting we will discuss how DNS is leveraged to support proper network operations and leveraged for nefarious operations like data exfiltration and ways to mitigate the risks Join this session to get a better understanding of how your DNS deployment may be vulnerable.
