Everything You Need to Know About DNS AttacksIt's important to understand DNS, potential attacks against it, and the tools and techniques required to defend DNS infrastructure. This report answers all the questions you were afraid to ask.
Domain Name Service (DNS) is a critical part of any organization's digital infrastructure, but it's also one of the least understood. DNS is designed to be invisible to business professionals, IT stakeholders, and many security professionals, but DNS's threat surface is large and widely targeted.
Attackers are causing a great deal of damage with an array of attacks such as denial of service, DNS cache poisoning, DNS hijackin, DNS tunneling, and DNS dangling. They are using DNS infrastructure to take control of inbound and outbound communications and preventing users from accessing the applications they are looking for. To stop attacks on DNS, security teams need to shore up the organization's security hygiene around DNS infrastructure, implement controls such as DNSSEC, and monitor DNS traffic

Thanks for the tip, appreciate it. Your article definitely helped me to understand the core concepts.
I'm most excited about the details your article touch based! I assume it doesn't come out of the box, it sounds like you are saying we'd need to write in the handlers ourselves.
Is there any other articles you would recommend to understand this better?
In the HANA migration guide, it is stated to run some consistency checks in FICO (see verbiage below).
I have run these, but I really don't know what I'm looking for - are we running just to make sure they run, running to validate numbers on the reports? Thoughts & guidance are appreciated. Thank you!
