Neustar,the operator for the .us ccTLD and the .biz gTLD has recently announced that it has implemented DNSSEC in the .US registry.
This will help to protect the Domain Name System from attacks that hijack and redirect domain name requests.
Tim Switzer,vice president at Neustar said :"This is an important step for Neustar,and gives .US domain name holders a significant way to differentiate their businesses. .US now stands for unprecedented Internet security."
Another member of Neustar,Rodney Joffe, senior vice president and senior technologist at Neustar said about this : " “DNSSEC means a more secure and reliable domain name system because its extensions provide origin authentication of DNS data, data integrity and authenticated denial of existence.”
