There seems to be a consensus for advocates of private Internet use that encryption is a good thing, and that encryption of DNS is needed to prevent network operators from gaining visibility into the sites and services their users lookup (and then visit). Two protocols have been created to achieve this encryption: DNS over TLS (DoT) and DNS over HTTPS (DoH). While both offer encryption of DNS data using the same TLS protocol, there are some very important differences:
Let’s put this into perspective. In 2019, the Centre for Disease Control reports that 61,200 people died from the common flu virus. That’s 168 deaths per day!

What’s worse is that bots can facilitate these campaigns en masse.
In the world of video cameras, it’s well understood that higher megapixel (MP) image sensors in a camera can capture more picture detail. However, there’s much more to image quality than pure megapixels since the quality and size of the sensor along with the lens plays a crucial part in determining the quality of each pixel.
Breakthroughs and advancements in security emerge every day, and there is no better time than now to start being careful with the security information we share with others.
It is becoming clear that enterprise security depends not only on implemented solutions, but also on how well-tuned internal processes are in terms of communication between departments, hiring, training of personnel and budgeting.
