# DNSCrypt

|
DNSCrypt[^1] is a protocol that encrypts, authenticates and optionally
|
|
|
|
|
|
anonymizes communications between a DNS client and a DNS resolver. It
|
|
|
|
|
|
prevents DNS spoofing. It uses cryptographic signatures to verify that
|
|
|
|
|
|
responses originate from the chosen DNS resolver and haven’t been
|
|
|
|
|
|
tampered with.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is an open specification, with free and open source reference
|
|
|
|
|
|
implementations, and it is not affiliated with any company nor
|
|
|
|
|
|
organization.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Free, DNSCrypt-enabled resolvers are available all over the world.
