CleanINTERNET for DNS

August 6, 2025

By Centripetal

DNS, the directory service for the internet, is an intrinsic element of how we communicate online. By resolving domain names into IP addresses, DNS delivers enormous value and yet is transparent to most of us. However the internet is rampant with malicious activity and DNS can be complicit in enabling hackers to misdirect and defraud users.

Over 80% of breaches occur from human error, and over half of employees fall prey to phishing emails that connect to known malicious websites. Despite the constant effort to train employees on cyber safety and best practices, caution is a short-lived human behavior. A DNS lookup can lead to a user accessing malicious content which may result in communication with command & control servers, exfiltration of data from network assets, or propagation of threats across business-critical networks.
