DNS

FYI: I just reran the doxpara.com test using CableOne's DNS servers, and it appears to finally been updated. Thank you CableOne for being on top of this so I didn't have to run all over the valley this weekend updating routers to OpenDNS!

Yesterday, I posted a tweet (http://twitter.com/ejhildreth/statuses/871831244) encouraging people that use CableOne as their Internet Service Provider (ISP) to run the free test at http://doxpara.com. Doxpara.com provides a Domain Name Server (DNS) tool that checks to see if your ISP's servers appear to be vulnerable to DNS Cache Poisoning (this allows the ability for somebody to impersonate any website). The test was created because there is an exploit out in the wild and *most* ISPs were still scrambling to get the hole patched.
