it is difficult (impossible?) to answer such a generic question.
Generic security advice for a DNS service:
* read your DNS servers documentation carefully
* understand every bit of your configuration
* don't use configuration settings you don't fully understand
* understand hos DNS works (read a good book or visit a good DNS training)
* run recent software (not old software that has know security issues)
* monitor your DNS server (DNS server logfiles, DNS traffic-patterns)
* don't run an 'open resolver'

Anything more specific your would like to know?
