[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 92963, post: 958535"] [B]New AI feature[/B] I activated the new AI feature, because this is relative old technology. Always wondered why NextDNS was behind on this area. Glad to see they finally decided to use AI/ML. I don't mind that it is in BETA, Next DNS has so much traffic that the AI-engine is probably sufficiently trained for my average every day usage. Here is nice article explaining that OpenDNS/Cisco Umbrella started to experiment with AI in 2012 and decided to add it to their paid protection services in 2015: - Umbrella CISCO article [URL unfurl="true"]https://umbrella.cisco.com/blog/opendns-cracks-predictive-security[/URL] - OPEN DNS (read page 6 and 7 of the pdf): [URL='https://silo.tips/download/automated-protection-against-advanced-attacks'][PDF] Automated Protection Against Advanced Attacks - Free Download PDF[/URL] [B]Easy risk reduction [/B] Another easy attack surface reduction tip (when your langauge uses latin characters) is to block all TLD's using non-latin characters. Near zero chance you will ever land on websites using a non-latin charset TLD ever by yourself. A risk reduction which should not impact usability (only increases security).
