WEDOS Ensures a Secure DNS Resolver in Compliance with NIS2!

The NIS2 directive introduces new cybersecurity requirements for internet service providers (ISPs). One of the key obligations is to secure DNS infrastructure, including the implementation of a secure DNS resolver.

Get Protected

Why is a DNS Resolver Important?

The Domain Name System (DNS) is the backbone of the internet, translating domain names into IP addresses. An unsecured DNS resolver can be vulnerable to attacks such as DNS spoofing, cache poisoning, and DNS amplification DDoS attacks. To mitigate these risks, NIS2 requires ISPs to implement robust security measures to protect both their infrastructure and end users.

Key NIS2 Requirements for a DNS Resolver

Security Measures for DNS Resolvers
Protection against DNS spoofing and cache poisoning attacks
Implementation of DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions) for DNS response authentication
Use of encrypted protocols such as DoH (DNS over HTTPS) and DoT (DNS over TLS) to safeguard user privacy
Real-Time Monitoring & Threat Detection
Active monitoring of suspicious DNS queries and traffic directed to malicious domains
DNS filtering implementation to block access to unsafe websites
Incident Reporting for DNS Security
Disruptions affecting DNS service availability or integrity reported to cybersecurity authorities within 24 hours
Ensuring DNS Infrastructure Redundancy & Resilience
Deployment of geographically distributed resolvers for uninterrupted availability
Use of Anycast DNS to reduce latency and enhance DDoS protection
Transparency & User Data Protection
ISPs must inform users if their DNS resolver stores DNS logs and how they are handled
Providing users the option to use third-party DNS resolvers if they prefer not to use the ISP’s resolver

Choosing the Right DNS Resolver Is Crucial – Does Your Provider Meet NIS2 Requirements?

It is essential for ISPs to carefully evaluate external DNS resolver providers to ensure they meet NIS2 security requirements and incident response capabilities. By doing so, ISPs can remain compliant without the need to operate their own DNS resolver.
