Secure DNS a Hard Sell

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the underdeveloped-ideas dept.

ebresie writes "Computer Business Review Online has an interesting article about the lack of acceptance for Secure DNS." From the article: "Speaking during a workshop on the technology, Keith Schwalm of Good Harbor Consulting, a former US Secret Service agent, said that even the financial sector, traditional security early-adopters, are not rushing DNSsec."

    "Some registrars talk of adding a "significant" add-on fee for DNSsec "expert services", while others talk of making domain registration a case of picking from two services -- a domain name and a "secure domain name", the latter costing more."

    So you have domain, secure domain, and when that gets compromised, you will then have super secure domains, ultra secure domains, and supermax domains?
