Can I still get DNS changed even behind a VPN?
As someone who was a victim of a targeted attack and not really an expert when it comes to CyberSecurity, I need to know.
- Is it possible for someone to change my dns, get remote access and all that stuff related to DNS hijcking if they know my IP even if said IP is from PIA VPN.
- Hows the security behind the VPN? I ran that GNC test and a lot of ports are open. If an attacker sends whatever attack to those ports, do I get affected.
If so:
- Can I close those ports without having to modify PIAs server config (which is impossible as a user of course).

None of the open ports on our servers pose a security threat. Additionally, our datacenters are protected against attacks with powerful adaptive firewalls.
