Over Half of UK Council DNS Records Route Through Hyperscalers

An analysis of UK councils' DNS records found that more than half of those routing their email and websites resolve to Microsoft, Amazon or Google. The same data shows 99.7% of councils publish anti-spoofing controls.

Why it matters: The findings show how heavily public-sector services depend on a few hyperscale providers, a concentration risk IT leaders should factor into resilience and outage planning.
