Query: A Survey on DNS Encryption: Current Development, Malware Misuse, and
  Inference Techniques   The domain name system (DNS) that maps alphabetic names to numeric Internet
Protocol (IP) addresses plays a foundational role for Internet communications.
By default, DNS queries and responses are exchanged in unencrypted plaintext,
and hence, can be read and/or hijacked by third parties. To protect user
privacy, the networking community has proposed standard encryption technologies
such as DNS over TLS (DoT), DNS over HTTPS (DoH), and DNS over QUIC (DoQ) for
DNS communications, enabling clients to perform secure and private domain name
lookups. We survey the DNS encryption literature published since 2016, focusing
on its current landscape and how it is misused by malware, and highlighting the
existing techniques developed to make inferences from encrypted DNS traffic.
First, we provide an overview of various standards developed in the space of
DNS encryption and their adoption status, performance, benefits, and security
issues. Second, we highlight ways that various malware families can exploit DNS
encryption to their advantage for botnet communications and/or data
exfiltration. Third, we discuss existing inference methods for profiling normal
patterns and/or detecting malicious encrypted DNS traffic. Several directions
are presented to motivate future research in enhancing the performance and
security of DNS encryption.
