All of us at this conference are responsible for the services that run on our company's domain, but who is responsible for the domains and subdomains that our infrastructure uses? And how secure and available is our domain? This talk is going to be a deep-dive on domain and DNS safety.
The safety of our domains is an often overlooked and taken for granted, however, how many of us have really thought deeply about how to perform a threat and availability assessment of our domain and DNS infrastructure? This session will run through common availability and security threat vectors for domains and DNS and will demonstrate how to detect and mitigate them.
