QuickDNS Pro 2.2 from Men & Mice Released:
QuickDNS Pro 2.2 Provides Extensive DNS Security and Robustness
Reykjavik, Iceland, February 4/– Men & Mice’s leading DNS server for
the Mac OS, QuickDNS Pro, now provides extensive DNS security and
robustness with the release of version 2.2. The upgrade includes
security features such as zone transfer restrictions to guard against
outside attacks and secure privacy, live DNS log window to monitor
the traffic on the DNS server, and support for Rebound! from
Sophisticated Circuits Inc., which adds further to the reliability of
responses from each DNS server.
DNS security is significantly enhanced with the new features in
version 2.2 of QuickDNS Pro. DNS administrators can now restrict zone
transfers from their DNS servers, thereby offering more protection
for their domains against outside attacks, in addition to providing
greater privacy of their domain information. A new live log window
allows users to monitor the traffic on their DNS servers in real
time, supplying them with important information about queries to
their DNS servers. DNS spoofing protection has also been implemented
to protect the QuickDNS Pro server against DNS spoofing, which can
for example cause users to be directed to wrong Internet sites or
emails to go through non-authorized mail servers. To ensure the
otherwise constant operation of QuickDNS Pro, support for Rebound!
from Sophisticated Circuits Inc. has been added, offering
crash-detection and server restarts, thus adding further to the
reliability of DNS responses from the QuickDNS Pro server.
QuickDNS Pro 2.2 for Mac OS is available from Men & Mice for $290,
$195 for educational organizations. The upgrade is free for current
users of QuickDNS Pro 2.x. A free full-functional demo version of
QuickDNS Pro 2.2 can be downloaded at: http://www.menandmice.com
