In 2024, cyber threats became more targeted and sophisticated, with regional attacks and AI-driven techniques taking center stage. More and more, we see attackers tailoring their tactics to local ecosystems, increasing their chances of success. At the same time, evolving techniques like Registered Domain Generation Algorithms (RDGAs),
and malicious Cross-site scripting (XSS) made traditional detection even harder.
The ongoing evolution of DNS security played a critical role in fighting these threats. Newly introduced solutions like Microsoft’s Zero Trust DNS (ZTDNS) are reshaping how DNS is secured. By adopting principles of zero trust – verifying every connection – organizations can significantly reduce their exposure to evolving threats.
At Whalebone, we have seen firsthand how collaboration, regional intelligence, and cutting-edge DNS security make all the difference. By focusing on real-time detection and building tailored defenses, we are ready to protect individuals, businesses, and institutions from evolving threats. Staying ahead in cybersecurity requires vigilance, adaptability, and constant collaboration – because the threats will always evolve, and so must we.
