I am looking to setup a public DNS server and I found this DNS server

https://technitium.com/dns/

Does anyone know what the risks are of exposing the DNS port to the internet? How likely am I to get compromised? Is this a really bad idea?

    Only doing resolution for your own domain and dnssec solve pretty much all those issues and is pretty darn easy.

    And I did say that the web gui is what you need to lock down, DNS has no vulnerabilities exploitable through port 53 that lets an attacker take control of the server.
