In 2008, security researcher DanKaminsky discovered and helped develop a patch for one of the most fundamental flaws ever found in the infrastructure of the Internet.
In July, security researcher DanKaminsky revealed a flaw in the Web's domain name system, or DNS, the protocol that connects a Web site's name with its physical location on the Internet.
DanKaminsky, the security researcher who found a major flaw in the domain name system in 2008 and recently founded a new company devoted to securing Web applications, says that a rickety session management system combined with a record number of users led to the tangled logins.
