DNSSEC for Everybody -- A Beginners' Guide8 April 2013, 17:00-18h30Yaovi Atohoun

When typing a name in a browser for example, that name must be first translated into a number by a system before the connection can be established. That system is called the Domain Name System (DNS) and it translates names like www.icann.org into the numbers – called Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. ICANN coordinates the addressing system to ensure all the addresses are unique.

DNSSEC   (DNS Security Extension) is a technology to secure the Domain Name System.

During this session, the panelist presented through a sketch a scenario where user is redirected to another website pretending that it is the one he is looking for when there is a security problem.  DNNSEC can be implemented by any individual or organization who is handling a Domain name System server or simply a name server.

Another session for a half day workshop is scheduled for April 10, 2013.
