# DNSSEC

DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) is a protocol designed to address security vulnerabilities in the Domain Name System (DNS). Here are the key points:

- **Digital Signatures:**
DNSSEC protects against attacks by digitally signing DNS data. These signatures ensure data validity and prevent tampering.

- **Hierarchical Signing:**
DNSSEC signs data at every level of the DNS lookup process. For instance, when looking up ‘google.com,’ the root DNS server signs a key for the .COM nameserver, which then signs a key for google.com’s authoritative nameserver.

- **Backwards Compatibility:**
DNSSEC doesn’t disrupt traditional DNS lookups; it adds security without breaking existing functionality. It complements other security measures like SSL/TLS.

- **Chain of Trust:**
DNSSEC establishes a parent-child trust chain from the root zone down to specific domains.
Any compromise in this chain exposes requests to on-path attacks.
