Something about OpenDNS
Folks somebody want to know about OpenDNS, as my previous entry fo about it. So let me share what i learned with you all.
OpenDNS is a Domain name system with great free features. Its a DNS, working fast when compared to the other DNS. OpenDNS runs a really big, smart cache, this benifits every DNS users attracted to use OpenDNS. Also thanks to some clever traffic routing and load-balancing technology, OpenDNS can also deliver Web pages faster. Open DNS works same as all other DNS systems, with many features that comes for free. The main features are
- DNS to block Phishing Web sites
- Auto-correct common misspelled URLs.
Web Forgery (also known as “Phishing”) is a form of identity theft that occurs when a malicious Web site impersonates a legitimate one in order to trick you into giving up sensitive information such as passwords, account details, or credit card numbers. Phishing attacks usually come from email messages that attempt to lure the recipient into updating their personal information on fake, but very real looking, Web sites. OpenDNS uses PhishTank, which is an online collaborative anti-phishing database. The PhishTank data, when tied to OpenDNS, protects users by blocking DNS lookup queries that match an entry in the database.
Also if you missspell any URL, OpenDNS matches with the database with the more relavent correct URLs and displays you the list. Making you easy to choose or correct yourself.
