I feel like password cracking might be a possibility too, but challenge/response seems more aligned with replay attacks.

Scanning attacks don't seem right for this question, but I can't recall if session hijacking is related.

I think the key is to avoid using the same machines for DNS and other applications. That could create a single point of failure and increase the attack surface.

Okay, let me see. Adding more teams could impact the existing team's productivity, but it really depends on how the teams are integrated and coordinated.
