This guide explains how to enable DNSSEC. DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions) is a protocol used for solving certain DNS protocol-related security issues. Find out more
Enabling DNSSEC
DNSSEC is available with the vast majority of extensions and just takes a few clicks to enable on domain names that are fully managed by Infomaniak.
- open the Manager (https://manager.infomaniak.com)
- go to Domain
- click on the corresponding domain name
- Enable DNSSEC from the domain Dashboard
If the DNS zone of your domain is managed by another registrar, you must provide the technical information that the latter has given you. If the information provided is incorrect, your domain name will no longer be accessible. Consequently, we recommend that you transfer the full management of your domain to Infomaniak before enabling DNSSEC if you are unfamiliar with these procedures.
Checking that DNSSEC is enabled
Please note that propagating DNSSEC with the registry may take several hours before it takes effect.
Using this site (click here) or this Firefox extension (cliquez ici), you can easily check if a domain name is protected by DNSSEC.
