Mullvad's public encrypted DNS Servers run in RAM now

Sweden-based VPN provider Mullvad announced today that its public encrypted DNS servers run fully in RAM. The announcement comes less than two months after Mullvad completed the migration of its VPN infrastructure to RAM.

The main benefit of running servers in RAM is that all traces of activity on disk are removed. Mullvad uses its own custom infrastructure to power its services and engineers are constantly working on improving it.

Encrypted DNS, widely known as DNS over HTTPS, protects DNS traffic by encrypting it. Network spies, such as the ISP or malicious actors, don't get cleartext information anymore when the security feature is enabled.
