SANS-Bericht zeigt wachsende Lücke zwischen Erkennungs- und Wiederherstellungszeiten
Eine Umfrage unter mehr als 330 Cybersicherheitsexperten aus der Industrie ergab, dass fast die Hälfte aller Vorfälle innerhalb von 24 Stunden erkannt wird, die Wiederherstellung jedoch oft wochenlang auf sich warten lässt. Der Fernzugriff und eingeschränkte Transparenz auf Prozessebene stellen hierbei das größte Risiko dar First seen on infopoint-security.de Jump to article: www.infopoint-security.de/sans-bericht-zeigt-wachsende-luecke-zwischen-erkennungs-und-wiederherstellungszeiten/a42974/

Preventing DNS filtering bypass by Encrypted DNS (DoT, DoH, DoQ)
DNS over HTTPS (DoH) and other encrypted DNS protocols like DNS over TLS (DoT) & DNS over QUIC (DoQ) enhances user privacy and security by encrypting DNS queries in transit, shielding them from eavesdropping, tampering, and censorship on untrusted networks. This prevents ISPs and local attackers from logging or manipulating domain resolutions, fostering a more…
