dnscrypt-proxy
dnscrypt-proxy acts as a DNS proxy between a regular client, like a
DNS cache or an operating system stub resolver, and a DNSCrypt-aware
resolver, like OpenDNS. The DNSCrypt protocol focuses on securing
communications between a client and its first-level resolver. While not
providing end-to-end security, it protects the local network (which is
often the weakest link in the chain) against man-in-the-middle attacks. It
also provides some confidentiality to DNS queries.
