Verisign Labs DANE Demonstration Page and Test Sites

By Dan YorkDirector, Internet Technology

Are you developing software that uses the DANE protocol to combine the strong integrity of DNSSEC with the encryption of TLS/SSL?

If so, the folks over at Verisign Labs have stood up a demonstration page and a series of test sites at:

http://dane.verisignlabs.com/

They provide a number of different test cases that you can use to test your DANE support.  We’ve added their sites to our list of DANE test sites and we definitely thank Verisign for making them available.

Check the sites out… and lets see DANE support getting added to more applications!
