Is your DNS signed?

Enter a domain to see whether DNSSEC is enabled, responses are authenticated and DS/DNSKEY records exist.

About this tool

DNSSEC digitally signs DNS records to prevent forgery and cache poisoning (DNS spoofing). When DNSSEC is enabled, resolvers can be sure the answer they receive hasn't been tampered with. This tool checks for a valid signature (the AD flag) and for DS and DNSKEY records.
