Domain Name System (DNS) has been playing an important role for various communication services on the Internet. Although DNS is irreplaceable element of recent information-driven society, there are some security considerations left. One of the major security problems is data tampering, which allows attackers 'phishing' available. Additionally, DNSSEC has introduced new security problem called 'zone walking'. Some kinds of countermeasures have been developing against such a zone information revealment, but there is still no action against zone information theft via wire tapping. This paper proposes one possible method to prevent wire tapping problem by introducing light weight program, called 'DNSWrapper'. In this paper we clarify the security problem about zone information revealment, then describe the DNSWrapper architecture which provides secure communications among client, resolver, and servers.
