About:
SDNS is a lightweight, caching DNS resolver that prioritizes user privacy and security. It operates as a recursive server, meaning it directly queries authoritative name servers rather than relying on third-party resolvers. With built-in DNSSEC support, it ensures data integrity and protection against spoofing attacks.
Key Features:
  • Recursive DNS resolution
  • DNSSEC validation
  • Privacy-focused architecture
  • Fast caching performance
  • Lightweight footprint
Use Cases:
  • Self-hosting a private DNS resolver for home networks
  • Securing DNS traffic on a local server
  • Replacing ISP default DNS for improved privacy
Alternatives:
  • unbound – Unbound is a highly feature-rich validator; SDNS aims for a simpler, modern implementation.
  • bind – BIND is a full authoritative and recursive server suite; SDNS focuses strictly on recursive resolution.
