Windows 10 Previews DNS Over HTTPS

1500×844

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Paul Thurrott:
*With the new build of Windows 10 [19628], Microsoft is starting to test DNS over HTTPS. The new build comes with Microsoft’s initial support for DNS over HTTPS on Windows, and Insiders will have to manually enable the new feature. If you would like to enable DNS over HTTPS in Windows 10, you will have to first install the latest Insider build. After that, you will have to go into the registry and tweak an entry to first enable the new DNS over HTTPS client, and then update the DNS servers your computer is using. It’s not as easy as ticking a checkbox, but Microsoft has shared the instructions to enable the feature in detail, so make sure to check it out here 4.
What is DNS over HTTPS and why is it important? “DNS, to put simply, is the process where an easy-to-read and write domain address is translated into an actual IP address for where a web resource is located,” writes Thurrott. “Although most websites already use HTTPS for added privacy, your computer is still making DNS requests and resolving addresses without any encryption. With DNS over HTTPS, your device will perform all the required DNS requests over a secured HTTPS connection, which improves security thanks to the encrypted connection.”
