Abstract

The theme of the workshop is that the system likes you and wants to be your friend, so rather than look directly at security issues, I’m going to consider whether my system is actually friendly, and see if there are any observations that may be helpful to us in improving the security.

I start off by looking at some of my experience with trying to use DNS from a bog standard PC. Now you might say that DNS is rather an easy target to attack from a security perspective, but what I’m going to address here isn’t really the security aspect of it, it’s just the way that this system seems to behave.
