imbra - How to Enable DNSSEC for a Domain in iPanel

DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions) adds a layer of security to your domain by digitally signing DNS records. This prevents attackers from forging DNS responses.

Steps

  1. From the sidebar, click Domains and then click on your domain.

Tip: DNSSEC must also be supported by your domain registrar. If your domain is registered through imbra, the DS records are configured automatically.
