Subj : Huston: Calling Time on DNSSEC? To : All From : LWN.net Date : Mon May 27 2024 23:00:07 Huston: Calling Time on DNSSEC? Date: Mon, 27 May 2024 21:56:10 +0000 Description: Geoff Huston suggests that it is time to give up on DNSSEC and look for a better way to secure the Internet namespace. What appears to be very clear (to me at any rate!) is that DNSSEC as we know it today is just not going anywhere. It's too complex, too fragile and just too slow to use for the majority of services and their users. Some value its benefits highly enough that they are prepared to live with its shortcomings, but that's not the case for the overall majority of name holders and for the majority of users, and no amount of passionate exhortations about DNSSEC will change this. ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://lwn.net/Articles/975454/ --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet UK HUB @ hub.uk.erb.pw (1337:1/100) .
