Abstract
The Domain Name System (DNS) is used by virtually every Internet application, but has virtually no security. The DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) add essential authentication, but deploying DNSSEC in a large-scale environment is non-trivial. This paper examines the operational and technological considerations when DNS operators manage a largescale deployment, such as an ISP with tens of thousands of zones, or a top-level domain that manages millions of domain name resource records.
