Introduction​

In the ever-evolving OpenBLD ecosystem, the second quarter of 2023 has witnessed remarkable growth and some exciting changes. OpenBLD.net, the service committed to minimizing the internet noise caused by advertising and tracking, has evolved to introduce cutting-edge features like Anycast/GeoDNS, DNS-over-HTTPS, and DNS-over-TLS.

New Features​

This evolution has brought forth two new services: Adaptive (ADA) and Strict (RIC), which are set to replace A-BLD and BLD. But what sets them apart? It's time to find out.

Testing Phase​

I've been testing these new services for over two weeks now, and I must say, they are impressive. For all OpenBLD users, I encourage you to give them a try. Here's how you can make the switch:

• For DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH), replace https://a-bld.sys-adm.in/dns-query with https://ada.openbld.net/dns-query

• For DNS-over-TLS (DoT), switch from a-bld.sys-adm.in to ada.openbld.net

• For DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH), replace https://bld.sys-adm.in/dns-query with https://ric.openbld.net/dns-query

• For DNS-over-TLS (DoT), switch from bld.sys-adm.in to ric.openbld.net

In a week or two, A-BLD will be fully merged with ADA, ceasing to exist as we know it. One server (109.234.39.72) will be replaced by another (46.151.29.15) for faster and more efficient service. Don't wait; start your testing today!

Malvertising seems to be enjoying a renaissance as of late, whether it is from ads on search engine results pages or via popular websites. Because browsers are more secure today than they were 5 or 10 years ago, the attacks that we are seeing all involve some form of social engineering.

A threat actor is using malicious ads to redirect users to what looks like a Windows security update. The scheme is very well designed as it relies on the web browser to display a full screen animation that very much resembles what you'd expect from Microsoft...

A Few days ago, Malwarebytes tread intelligence team discovered a new campaign that uses a fake Windows update to drop the Aurora stealer. The attack starts with a malvertising chain that redirects users to a website displaying a fake Windows update page. The page is designed to look like the real thing, with a full screen animation that very much resembles what you'd expect from Microsoft.

I'm working on new OpenBLD DoH/DoT release with Anycast DNS, GeoDNS (Europe, Asia locations) functionality.

I think this or next month, I'll start the new faster DoH/DoT OpenBLD testing release with automatic identification of the closest server location continent and network route detection for OpenBLD clients.

You can fill this form in, after review I'll "ping" you with testing as soon as possible:

OpenBLD.net — Next Stage to Growth with ClouDNS

GeoDNS and Global Anycast DNS features from ClouDNS - it as a brilliant opportunity for additional OpenBLD Performance and Availability

Today ClouDNS supported OpenBLD DNS and provided own features for free:

• Anycast DNS service and Anycast GeoDNS servers
• DDoS Protection
• DNS Failover checks
• EDNS-client-subnet support
• and more...

ClouDNS providing flexible tools for managements services and very affordable pricing plans and it is I like it very much.

This can be a key milestone in the development phase of the OpenBLD project, it is a next stage for growth. I have special domain name for OpenBLD DNS project, may be it is a "that very moment"...

• All ClouDNS features you can found on ClouDNS Site

Few time ago I decided to move OpenBLD.net content from Nuxt3 to a Docusaurus blogging system.

Before I used Nuxt3 for the Sys-Adm.in Labs blog which also hosted the main docs for the OpenBLD.net ecosystem infrastructure. Begin with current day, I decided to move main content to the Docusaurus blogging system on relevant OpenBLD.net domain.

Docusaurus it is a best choose for OpenBLD.net Service Project. With Docusaurus blogging features are powered by the blog plugin, we can use markdown files (or folders) in to the blog directory.

Thanks, Docusaurus, for this functionality and flexible content management system!
