Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Charter DNS servers returning invalid IP addresses

VirusTotal and other domain reputation sites say the domain is malicious.  Specifically there have been multiple 
malware samples that were scanned (latest was 10-09-2023) that had this domain hard coded in it.

You may want to get a new domain.  Other option is to contact Akamai and see if they can whitelist this domain.  
Charter uses threat intel from Akamai to block certain "malicious" domains.

If it helps troubleshooting, when I click the domain in the email Mimecast

I saw nothing referencing Mimecast in the original email. Where did you see this?


bonesinjars.com is not signed with DNSSEC. This is trivial to setup and might 
prevent some of this.


Probably not a good idea for your customers to rely on $BIGCABLE DNS servers.
