Windows Server 2012 has added some new features for administrators. What are some of the advanced security configuration and the tools that are used in server 2012 for DNS administration? DNSSEC records: DNSKEY stores a zone’s public key. RRSIG holds the private key. NSEC proves non-existence of a DNS name. DS secures a delegation. DNSSec key master To be a key Master, the DNS server must be: A primary, authoritative server for the zone. Capable of online zone signing. A key master that is not a DC should only have the DNS Server role installed. Configuring DNS clients Transferring the key master Role The key Master role can be transferred if both servers are online. The User must have Domain Admins rights. Use the Reset-DnsServerZoneKeyMasterRole cmdlet. Seizing the key Master Role If the original server is offline, the key master role must be seized. The private key must be accessible. Use MakeCert –ss MS-DNSSEC –SR LocalMachine to store the private key locally. Other DNS Security Mechanisms Cache locking: Prevents hostname mappings from being modified after being cached. Socket pooling: Creates a pool of ports to be used by DNS instead of just port 53. As we know that DNS server service is not installed by default, it has to be added using either Power Shell, ADDS or via Server manager. List the steps that you will use to install DNS using Server Manager. Click Next on the
Explain the steps a cosmetologist who wants to open a salon would need to take.The license cosmetologist that wants to open a salon will also have to get the salon a proper and up-to-date license. They will need to check state regulations first and see what the requirements are. One of the top considerations that cosmetologist who are looking for a space to open a salon is air quality.
A hierarchical system of servers and services specifically designed to translate IP addresses into domain names (forward lookups) as well as the reverse (reverse lookups) is called:

system to talk to itself. The IP address of the loopback serviceis always 127.0.0.1, while 127.0.1.1 names the local system.
When you type in a web address, e.g.www.google.com. DNS associates with the domain name, translates into IP address (for example 192.168.154.70 is the IP for google.com) and directs your Internet connection to the correct website.
DNS (Domain Name System) : used to translate the internet protocol services. Stand-alone daemon run by script named.
Having secure mobile and IP address to it is one of the major important factors as to avoid hacking data. (VoIP) is majorly defined as the ability for faxing, phone calls etc. There is also a need of scalable support over IP which routes and optimizes the mobile needs over secured IP and its protocols. There are also communication insecurity in terms of protection. Some of them are protocol errors, cryptographic errors and implementation errors
DNS is the service that translates from domain name to the matching IP address. The roles of the name servers in this process are:
Esoteric protocol: A set of acquisition parameters was categorized as esoteric if the protocol and series name was utilized only once in the entire data set and was not changed at scan time.
Patients records are confidential. BHO can adopt the Need-to-know security principle so that there are certain restrictions in accessing patient records. BHO may want to implement certain rights to be given to their doctors, nurses, healthcare assistants and administrative staff and this may prevent unauthorised access to other patient’s records. For example, administrative staff are only granted to access in booking new appointment and collection payment but it’s restricted to access other information such as medical records. Doctors are granted to view patient’s medical records but it is not allowed to make any amendments.
The digital platform is structured around two pillars: firstly, Healthify must ensure the highest standard of privacy and security in handling sensitive health information. Secondly, since the aim of doc.com is to unify all of Canada’s health care providers under one platform, Healthify must ensure redundancy, data safety, and extremely minimal down time. Should a problem similar to that affecting the Phoenix payroll software occur, the healthcare system would be crippled. In order for it to be effective, stakeholders must be confident in doc.com’s performance. Given that doc.com will handle vast amounts of personal information, the platform will be closed. Open sourcing can be beneficial for certain pieces of software,
DNS and DHCP monitoring is very simple on Windows. Unlike its Unix-like counterparts, the core network services on Windows were designed with a user in mind, and can extrapolate, interpolate, predict, and interpret. Whether you do or do not have a monitoring system in place, the suite of services Windows provides are able to update the administrator with data at-a-glance. Easy to read color coding and sometimes cryptic error messages make administrating this network services much less painful. Given their simple daemon based architecture, monitoring with PRTG, SolarWinds, Nagios, or whatever is easy, breezy, and
In this lab, we must add the Windows 2012 server to our monitoring server with monitoring DNS and DHCP on the Windows 2012 server. In my case, I have Nagios as the monitoring service set up. In Nagios, I added the Windows 2012 server and configured it to monitor DHCP, DNS, and the CPU of the Windows 2012 server. This is an excellent practice for Sys Admins to make sure what services are critical to watch or troubleshoot in the infrastructure.
It is a hierarchical infrastructure that allows a network administrator in charge of Microsoft's Active Directory to implement specific configurations for users and computers. Group Policy can also be used to define user, security and networking policies at the machine level.
