Security of .edu Internet Domain to IncreaseCreated by Valerie M. Vogel (EDUCAUSE) on September 3, 2009
EDUCAUSE and VeriSign announced today the initiation of a project to enhance Internet reliability and stability. By the end of March 2010, the project will deploy a security system known as Domain Name Security Extensions (DNSSEC) within the .edu portion of the Internet, which EDUCAUSE manages under a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Department of Commerce. When the project is completed, institutions whose domain names end in .edu will be able to incorporate a digital signature into those names to limit a variety of security vulnerabilities. Read more in the press release, view DNSSEC resources, or visit the DNSSEC for .edu FAQ.
