The recent privacy-focused advancements have enabled the IETF to standardize several protocols. Nevertheless, these protocols tend to focus on either strengthening user privacy (like Oblivious DNS and Oblivious DNS-over-HTTPS) or reducing resolution latency (as demonstrated by DNS-over-QUIC). Achieving both within a single protocol remains a key challenge, which we address in this paper. Our proposed protocol -- 'Oblivious DNS-over-QUIC' (ODoQ) -- leverages the benefits of the QUIC protocol and incorporates an intermediary proxy server to protect the client's identity from exposure to the recursive resolver.","short_abstract":"The Domain Name System (DNS), which converts domain names to their respective IP addresses, has advanced enhancements aimed at safeguarding DNS data and users' identity from attackers.
