About this course

DNS Tunneling is a technique that exploits the Domain Name System (DNS) protocol for data transfer, often used to covertly exfiltrate data from a network. DNS is a standard internet protocol primarily used for name resolution, translating domain names into IP addresses. However, DNS tunneling abuses this protocol for unauthorized data transmission.
