DNS sobre TLS: privacidad en el DNS
(July 11, 2017)
NIC Chile dispone de un „servidor de prueba“ puesto a disposición de los desarrolladores y primeros usuarios en adoptar y probar esta tecnología. Este servidor es completamente funcional, y se invita a la comunidad de .CL a utilizarlo consiguiendo tiempos de respuesta nacionales, sin necesidad de utilizar
servicios en el extranjero. Este servicio se entrega en forma gratuita pero en modo experimental, sin promesas de uptime ni su continuidad en el futuro. Existe registro de las queries con fines de investigación y control de abuso.
Para utilizarlo, los datos son:
IPv4: 200.1.123.46
IPv6: 2001:1398:1:0:200:1:123:46
Ports: 853 y 443
Hostname: dnsotls.lab.nic.cl (con „strict name TLS authentication“)
SPKI: pUd9cZpbm9H8ws0tB55m9BXW4TrD4GZfBAB0ppCziBg= (pin sha256)
Se agradecen los reportes de fallas y feedback técnico a través del correo dnsotls(at)lab.nic.cl.

What is DNS over TLS?
DNS over TLS (DoT) is a protocol for the encrypted transmission of DNS (Domain Name System) queries. Name resolution on the Internet is typically transmitted unencrypted via UDP. With DoT, however, the assignment of domains and the associated IP addresses is encrypted using the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. This protects the transmission from interception, manipulation and man-in-the-middle attacks.
DNS over TLS: Definition
DoT is the standard (RFC 7858) proposed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) for fortifying DNS connections. In contrast to conventional DNS requests, DoT establishes a secure TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) connection between the client and the DNS server, which is authenticated and encrypted using TLS.
DNS Leak Test
Incorrect network configurations or faulty VPN/proxy software can lead to your device sending DNS requests directly to your ISP‘s server, potentially enabling ISPs or other third parties to monitor your online activity.
The DNS Leak Test is a tool used to determine which DNS servers your browser is using to resolve domain names. This test attempts to resolve 50 randomly generated domain names, of which 25 are IPv4-only and 25 are IPv6-only.
Brief History of the Domain Name System
Jan. 7, 1958 – President Eisenhower requested funds to start ARPA.
(…)
– Early 1967 – Meeting of ARPA’s principal investigators in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Roberts (the director of the IPTO) put forward the idea of a computer network. Wes Clark introduced the idea of a subnetwork: small, identical computers all interconnected – “interface message processors (IMPs).” Engelbert volunteered to the Network Information Center (NIC).
– 1967 – Roberts published paper on ARPANET.
– End of 1967 – The Association for Computing Machinery’s computer conference in Gatliburg, Tennessee. Roberts presented his first paper on ARPANET and heard of work done by Donald Davies’ team at NPL and Paul Baran at RAND.
(…)
Summer 1975 – The Defense Communications Agency (DCA) took over the management of ARPANET.
(…)
– November 1983 – The rapid growth of the internet caused massive problems in bookkeeping. To deal with this problem a group including Jon Postel, Paul Mockapetris and Craig Partrige published RFC 882 which created the domain name system (DNS) to make Internet navigation easier. With DNS, users can type host names such as “USC-ISIF” instead of “10.2.0.52.” Every Address would have information from specific to general.
Encrypted DNS Factsheet: What is DNS, and Why is it Critical?
(May 3, 2023)
While the DNS has been refined and extended since it was standardized in 1983, its privacy properties have not. As designed, DNS information is sent unencrypted across the Internet, and thus is viewable by anyone along the path, resulting in lack of privacy.
Perhaps the biggest risk is that it’s so easy to forget DNS exists…! It’s hard to know or care about something you never see.
