    Abstract: Systems and methods for enhanced monitoring and adaptive management of inter-network Domain Name System (“DNS”) traffic include an information capture device in a monitored network. The information capture device receives a redirected connection request originated by a client machine in the monitored network in response to a modified DNS answer from a recursive name server outside of the monitored network, captures detailed information associated with the redirected connection request that is inaccessible to the recursive name server, and sends the captured information to a data storage accessible to the recursive name server for storage as augmented DNS data associated with the client machine and/or the redirected connection request. The information capture device further provides, in response to the redirected connection request, an adaptive answer generated based on the augmented DNS data to the client machine.

    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to securely bootstrapping devices in a network environment. Methods and systems include hardware and/or operations for receiving, based on an identifier provisioned at a relying entity, instances of a security credential of an information system, wherein the instances are associated with respective certifying entities. The operations also include verifying the authenticity of the instances of the security credential using information of the certifying entities provisioned at the relying entity. The operations further includes determining matches between the instances of the security credential. Additionally, the operations include determining based on the matches that a first instance of the security credential satisfies a policy provisioned at the relying entity. Further, the operations include verifying the authenticity of information requested from the information system using the first instance of the security credential. In various implementations, the information system may be the domain name system.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting and responding to Denial of Service (“DoS”) attacks comprise: detecting a DoS attack or potential DoS attack against a first server system comprising one or more servers; receiving, at a second server system comprising one or more servers, network traffic directed to the first server system; subjecting requesting clients to one or more challenge mechanisms, the challenge mechanisms including one or more of challenging requesting clients to follow through HTTP redirect responses, challenging requesting clients to request Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) session resumption, or challenging requesting clients to store and transmit HTTP cookies; identifying one or more non-suspect clients; and forwarding, by the second server system, traffic corresponding to the one or more non-suspect clients to the first server system. Once a client has been validated, clients may communicate directly with application servers in a secure manner by transparently passing through intermediary proxy servers.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable mediums are provided that access a set of data related to a plurality of domain name system (DNS) requests for a plurality of subnets in a network. A subset of the set of data that is a representative sample of the set of data is selected. Latency of the subset of the data is estimated and latency is estimated for the totality of the data. A portion of the network is modified based on the estimated latency of the totality of the data.

    Abstract: Implementations relate to systems and methods for pre-signing of DNSSEC enabled zones into record sets. A domain name system (DNS) can receive and/or impose a set of DNS policies desired by an administrator, or the DNS operator itself to govern domain name resolution with security extensions (DNSSEC) for a Web domain. The DNS can generate a set of answers to user questions directed to the domain based on the set of policies. Those answers which differ or vary based on policy rules can be stored as variant answers, and can be labeled with a variant ID. The variant answers can be pre-signed and stored in the DNS. Because key data and other information is generated and stored before a DNS request is received, the requested variant answer can be returned with greater responsiveness and security.
