DNSSEC Checker

Check DNSSEC for domain

DNSSEC Checker is a handy Chrome extension that lets you quickly verify if the current website employs DNSSEC technology. DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions) enhances the security of domain name resolutions by preventing DNS spoofing through public key cryptography. This extension signals security status by changing its icon to green if DNSSEC is active, or gray if not.

By communicating with the dnssec.cctld.uz service in the background, DNSSEC Checker provides a seamless way to assess the authenticity and integrity of DNS responses. It's a valuable tool for users concerned about internet security, ensuring they can identify secure domains at a glance. Note that functionality depends on the availability of the dnssec.cctld.uz service.

I'm really not sure if this extension works or not. There are many ways to validate DNSSEC, but this plugin claims to rely on results provided by dnssec.cctld.uz. Well, if that's true, why does it not validate any site at all — not even it's own? It's weird, right? Not that there is nothing wrong with dnssec.cctld.uz — it replies correctly. It's just this extension does not seem to be able to connect to it at all. Anyway, I'll keep this warning and the bad rating until the developer comes out with a fix...
