What is DNSSEC?


DNSSEC stands for Domain Name System Security Extensions and it validates responses to DNS queries before they are returned to the client. The client sends a query asking for a particular DNS information with a cryptographic key, and the client’s DNS server retrieves the answer and validates it using another cryptographic key.

If your domain name is registered with us, open a support ticket with the DS record to have the DS record added.

If your domain name is registered with other companies, check with them on how to have the DS record added.

If your current registrar does not allow you to add a DS record, you may transfer your domain name to us to take advantage of our DNSSEC secured dynamic DNS service as well as DNS hosting services.
