For Webmasters, Tech News Add comments

An update on the DNS flaw we reported on a few weeks back. If you’ve got no idea what this is about, we recommend reading up on these first, it affects everyone on the internet. If you have read the other 2 articles, you’ll know that some attacks had been reported, but the first ‘big’ attack has taken on Google. Users visiting Google were directed to a website copying Google almost exactly, but taking advantage of affiliate style links.

Now, the important part - you can check your ISP at DoxPara Research by clicking the ‘Check my DNS’ button. If your unsecure, we recommend you get in contact with your ISP and ask them what’s happening, and also leave a comment here to name and shame whoever it is.

Now, the second important part of the article, Apple. Apple have been very reluctant to patch, and have been reported to be ‘dragging their heals’. However, they finally released a patch for OS X.
