Abstract :
The paper presents the concept of securing Domain Name System, DNS. Digital Signatures being very secure helps in providing good security to DNS. Software like BIND, OpenDNSSEC, Secure64 etc. involve signing of DNS using cryptographic algorithms (e.g., RSA, DSA etc.). Also, ECDSA is one way that provides same level of security, as provided by RSA for low power and portable devices. So, proposing a new ECDSA implementation that can be used in securing DNS.
