Symantec Enters DNS Provider Market With Norton DNS
The domain name system is a naming system for computers and other devices connected to private computer networks or the Internet. One of its most important tasks is to translate domain names (e.g. ghacks.net) into IP addresses that computer use for communication purposes.
Most Internet users use their Internet Service Provider as the DNS provider, often without their knowledge. This may not always be the optimal solution depending on the provider's infrastructure, network speed and handling of domain names that cannot be resolved as well as a country's censorship implementations.
