Kaminsky On DNS Bugs a Year Later and DNSSEC 127
L3sPau1 writes "Network security researcher Dan Kaminsky has had a year to reflect on the impact of the cache poisoning vulnerability he discovered in the Domain Name System. In the time since, Kaminsky has become an advocate for improving security in DNS, and ultimately, trust on the Internet. One way to do this is with the widespread use of DNSSEC (DNS Security Extensions), which essentially brings PKI to website requests. In this interview, Kaminsky talks about how the implementation of DNSSEC would enable greater security and trust on the Net and provide a platform for the development of new security products and services."

Kaminsky is incredibly enthusiastic about DNSSEC. ... to the point where someone not too knowledgeable (like I am) wonders if DNSSEC really is that amazing or if he was just high.
