dnsmonster

Overview ¶

dnsmonster implements a packet sniffer for DNS traffic. It can accept traffic from a pcap file or a live interface, and can be used to index and store hundreds of thousands of queries per second. It aims to be scalable and easy to use, and help security teams to understand the details about an enterprise's DNS traffic. It does not aim to breach the privacy of the end-users, with the ability to mask source IP, making the data potentially untraceable. the project has been developed as a monolith, but now it has been split into multiple modules. the modules will be expanded and improved over time, and will have a robust API to be used by other projects.
