RPZ works on known ahead of time text strings / IP matches.  As such, 
there's really no intelligence to it.  If it matches a pattern, do 
.


Note:  Pattern isn't anything nearly as nice as an RE.

So you would need /something/ to watch traffic and apply logic to it, 
modifying the RPZ after the fact.


Conversely, RPS outsources that intelligence to something else to 
directly apply the logic during the query.


It really sounds like you're after RPS.

If you know fixed aspects of the queries / responses, you can very 
likely filter them with Response Policy Zone.


However I think you will need Response Policy Service to be able to do 
more instrumentation / trending / tracking and filtering of unknown 
ahead of time aspects.


I think of RPS for DNS much like I think of milters for Sendmail.

It's my understanding that RPS support is in BIND.  However I'm not 
aware of any free RPS filters.  I think there is at least one commercial 
implementation.

Can we block/detect DNS beacon channels?

2018-05-02 Thread Blason R
Hi,

I would really appreciate if someone can shed light; if DNS based advanced
attacks can be stopped using DNS RPZ? Like DNS beacon channels or Data
Exfiltration through DNS queries.
