Computer Network Defence (CND) Choices and Behaviours

Culture and Cyber Behaviours: DNS Defending

ABSTRACT

The Domain Name System (DNS) provides the Internet mapping information that many applications rely on for proper functioning. DNS software is a popular and potent attack vector. Many DNS attacks can be prevented through the adoption of DNS security extensions (DNSSEC). DNSSEC provides assurance of data authenticity (Arends et al. 2005). Even though DNSSEC standard has been in place over a decade, adoption has remained uneven; therefore, cultural values and DNSSEC adoption and rejection rates were examined in this study. The findings reveal activity in several dimensions, thus, implying that DNSSEC behaviours and cultural values may be co-related.
