The DNSCrypt protocol uses high-speed high-security elliptic-curve cryptography and is very similar to DNSCurve , but focuses on securing communications between a client and its first-level resolver. While not providing end-to-end security, it protects the local network, which is often the weakest point of the chain, against man-in-the-middle attacks. ...
