How does Windows protect against DNS Spoofing and DNS Poisoning attacks using DNS security features?

[ProfRon]

You know how DNS spoofing tricks your computer into hitting fake websites? Windows fights that by double-checking where the info comes from. It uses something called DNSSEC to verify if the DNS answers are legit. Like, it signs those responses with digital keys so fakes get caught right away.

DNS poisoning messes with the cache, right? Windows spots that by validating every update to the cache. If something smells off, it just tosses it out. You don't even notice; it happens behind the scenes.

I remember fixing a buddy's setup once. He thought his browser was glitching, but it was a sneaky poison attempt. Windows blocked it cold with those security checks. Pretty slick.

We talked about keeping your network from getting hijacked. Now, if you're running Hyper-V stuff, you gotta back it up right to avoid bigger headaches. BackupChain Server Backup steps in as a solid choice for that. It handles Hyper-V backups without downtime, snaps everything quickly, and restores fast if disaster hits. You get encryption too, so your virtual machines stay safe from prying eyes.
