Functioning as the internet\u2019s address book, DNS matches website names, like Firefox.com and Shaw.ca, to their corresponding internet protocol (IP) addresses so that browsers can load the correct website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the name suggests, encrypted DNS simply adds a layer of end-to-end encryption to DNS operations. Over the last few years, Mozilla, Shaw, and other industry stakeholders have been working together to provide people with encrypted DNS through a technology called \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/DNS_over_HTTPS\">DNS over HTTPS<\/a>\u201d (DoH). By Shaw participating in the TRR program, Shaw\u2019s internet customers who use Mozilla\u2019s Firefox browser are now able to receive the full benefits of DoH, including encrypted DNS when browsing the internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>Bringing ISPs into the TRR program helps us protect user privacy online without disrupting existing user experiences. We are glad to continue on our path of cooperation between browsers and ISPs with this new partnership with Shaw.<\/p><cite>Eric Rescorla, Firefox CTO<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Shaw\u2019s entrance into the TRR program demonstrates that Shaw has met Mozilla\u2019s extremely high standards and requirements for maintaining users\u2019 privacy and security. By combining the DoH technology with strict operational requirements for those implementing it, participants take an important step toward improving user privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>We\u2019re proud to be the first ISP in Canada to partner with Mozilla to offer encrypted DNS &#8211; giving customers an additional tool to improve the safety and security of their browsing information. Shaw\u2019s agreement with Mozilla to provide encrypted DNS for Firefox users will further enhance these customers\u2019 privacy when browsing the internet on our network.<\/p><cite>Damian Poltz, Senior Vice President, Wireline Technology &amp; Strategy, Shaw Communications<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Mozilla began the rollout of encrypted DNS over HTTPS by default for Canadian Firefox users in July 2021 and for US-based Firefox users in February 2020, but began testing the protocol in 2018. Adding ISPs in the TRR Program paves the way for providing people with the security of trusted DNS resolution, while also offering the benefits of a resolver provided by their ISP such as parental control services and better optimized, localized results.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shaw becomes first Canadian ISP to Commit to Data Retention and Transparency
