DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions) is a security protocol that adds a layer of trust to the DNS by attaching digital signatures to DNS records .
- Purpose: It protects your website visitors from "DNS Spoofing" and "Cache Poisoning," where attackers redirect traffic to fraudulent sites.
- How it Works: When DNSSEC is enabled, the DNS resolver verifies the digital signature to ensure the data received from the nameserver is identical to the data published by the domain owner.
