Summary

Cloudflare has published its first DNSSEC signed zone, www.cloudflare.com, and invites users to analyze and provide feedback on the implementation. The company aims to make DNSSEC as widespread and easy-to-use as TLS. They are addressing complexities of DNSSEC by signing on the fly, using ECDSA for smaller answers and reduced risk of reflection attacks, and providing a fully managed solution. Users can participate in the beta program by emailing their website name and answer to a question about DNSSEC algorithm number for ECDSAP256SHA256.
