dns.exe what is that?

been watching stuff in task manager window, curious to know what this dns.exe thing is about.  See pic. I have noticed ip addresses from various places around the world. How are they gaining access, or, are they gaining access? I don't understand what this is.  We do have an app that uses a dns service, but access via our router has all ips blocked, only allowing ips that I manually enter into the router rules to "allow". Not sure what I am seeing here.
