zero trust dns
About this tag
Zero Trust DNS is a security model that treats DNS traffic as untrusted by default, requiring encryption and verification for every query. On WindowsForum.com, discussions cover Microsoft's implementation of DNS over HTTPS (DoH) in Windows Server 2025, which encrypts internal name resolution to align with zero trust principles. This feature, made generally available with the June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates, allows enterprise networks to use Microsoft-supported encryption between DoH-capable clients and internal resolvers. The shift aims to make cleartext DNS a legacy exception, reinforcing that DNS is a critical trust boundary. Additionally, Microsoft's broader security push includes Zero Trust DNS as part of enterprise hardening, alongside post-quantum cryptography and passkey support.
