Jay Beale Attacking and Defending BIND DJBDNS DNS Servers
Jay Beale, Security Team Director - MandrakeSoft
Attacking and Defending BIND / DJBDNS DNS Servers
This talk basically runs in the Attack and Defense format, where we explain what the traditional attacks have been against name servers and how to harden your setup to defend against them. The methods range from refusing queries from the "wrong" hosts, to chrooting servers to setting up split-horizon DNS / firewalling setups.
