    Hi There,

    I'm using SEP ver 11.0.5002.333 in my environment, are we safe and protected against 'Internet doomsday' bogue DNS server redirection ?

     

    regards,

    Wong

    SEP will detect DNSChanger as Trojan.Flush.K or as Trojan.DNSChanger so yes, you are protected:

    Please make sure your virus definitions are up to date.
