Johannes Ullrich, Dean of Research, SANS Technology Institute

DESCRIPTION
===================

We all know the Internet and the "Web" are synonyms as the only protocol
you will ever use is HTTP. Wrong! There is a second protocol that is
simple and, unlike HTTP, "just works": DNS. But as they say, quiet
waters run deep. In this talk, you will learn what is changing about
DNS. How DNSSEC, a very effective but much too complex (for the average
sysadmin) protocol is being replaced by simpler "DNS Cookies," and how
even DNS all of a sudden starts to care about this privacy thing that
you heard people talk about in the news. And yes, you will learn how to
finally run DNS over HTTP to finally obsolete the last remaining reason
for port-based firewalls. We will have fun and excitement with one of
the most boring protocols on the internet - and you will never believe
what happens on slide 23!
