in General
I recently registered a domain with a registrar which offered if I would like to activate DNSSEC for my domain during the registration process. I want to know if DNSSEC is necessary & does it really add any security to prevent hijacking of DNS?
Comments
No & Yes.
i don't use it
But if you ask will it add security then answer is YES
Will it prevent DNS hijacking that depends on multiple factors
I don't use it because its creates some issues with old recursive DNS servers i had a bad exp with it
if you run a high risk site i would suggest to use it but do it if you know what you are doing
Have a great day
Maybe in China.
