Should the blocking and blacklisting of names or throttling of query packets be the responsibility of the DNS? From experience I know my opening paragraph has started passionate debates in more than one section of this globe. [...]

Along with the Internet’s two major developments, being DNSSEC and IDNs, other items of note for 2010 include DNS Resilience, [...]

“Capacity” — The hidden word?
What is so secret about the word, “Capacity”? As I read and talk with people I realize the word, “capacity” is typically missing from the DNS discussion. “Capacity” and “Security” are the two cornerstones to maximizing DNS resilience; both of which are typically missing from the DNS discussion. Have you seen a single DNS node [...]

Yesterday CommunityDNS noticed a sudden, heavy spike in traffic through its Anycast node in Hong Kong. While comfortably processing queries at 863,000 queries per second for close to 2 hours the occurrence was undeniable. While we can’t say the increase in traffic was specifically due to DDoS, its sudden increase is suspicious and reminds us [...]

Capacity, necessary for maintaining operations during D/DoS attacks, is also necessary for increased traffic due to DNSSEC deployment. Scalability is highly important, as DNSSEC is deployed not only will greater traffic levels will be encountered, greater demand will be placed on [...]
