Abstract

A network is secured by managing domain name requests such that client devices are restricted from visiting malicious or undesirable domains. An endpoint Domain Name Server (DNS) agent is installed on client devices on a local network, and the endpoint DNS agents intercept DNS requests from the client devices and process the received DNS request in the endpoint DNS agent based on a security policy set for the client device via the endpoint DNS agent. In a further example, the endpoint DNS agent receives an HTTP message from a client browser including a Server Name Identifier tag, and generates a signed certificate spoofing the domain identified in the Server Name Identifier tag to insert itself as a man-in-the-middle between the identified domain and the client browser.
