DNS Security Protocol
The operator of .com and .net has promised to deploy DNS Security Extensions - known as DNSSEC - across all of its top-level domains within two years. The company is moving forward with the implementation of DNSSEC across all of the Top Level Domains that they operate, and will most likely be the last TLD to adopt DNSSEC due to the size of the zone. They anticipate full implementation of DNSSEC to be complete across all TLDs in approximately 24 months. DNSSEC uses digital signatures and public-key encryption to allow Web sites to verify their domain names and corresponding IP addresses. DNSSEC prevents hackers from hijacking Web traffic and redirecting it to bogus sites, which are called cache poisoning attacks. DNSSEC is viewed as the best way to bolster the DNS against vulnerabilities such as the Kaminsky bug discovered this summer. DNSSEC has been deployed on top-level domains operated by Sweden, Puerto Rico, Bulgaria, Brazil and the Czech Republic. Two larger domains: .org operated by the Public Interest Registry and .gov operated by the U.S. Government are deploying DNSSEC this year.
