RE: [Crypto Security] - Increase security by using encrypted DNS

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Hmmm...I am using 1.1.1.1 as my DNS server but that site is reporting that my DNS is not secure. It says:

We detected you’re using 1.1.1.1 (a secure DNS resolver) but not over a secure connection. Anybody listening on the wire can see the DNS queries you make when using the Internet.

Any idea why that is and how I can fix it?

What browser? Depending on browser/version you may need to go into config page and turn on Secure DNS.

https://developers.cloudflare.com/1.1.1.1/dns-over-https/web-browser
^ This may help for configuring browsers.

I'm using Brave. Secure DNS was turned on in the settings but for whatever reason I had to tell Brave to use Cloudflare for secure DNS even though it's set at my router also.

That's a new setting they just added. I noticed for me it works without specifying that but I did change it to specifically choose 1.1.1.1 recently to see if I could get ESNI working, but it is no longer being supported.

Glad you got it working, it's especially useful when traveling with a laptop on untrusted networks.
