#### DNS Protocols
DNS-over-TLS was proposed in [RTC-7858](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7858) by the IETF, then 2 years later, the DNS-over-HTTPS specification was outlined in [RFC8484](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8484) in October '18. [DNSCrypt](https://dnscrypt.info/), is a protocol that authenticates communications between a DNS client and a DNS resolver. It prevents DNS spoofing, through using cryptographic signatures to verify that responses originate from the chosen DNS resolver, and haven’t been tampered with. DNSCrypt is a well battle-tested protocol, that has been in use since 2013, and is still widely used.
