alphadogg writes "Internet security gurus and leading vendors are urging the U.S. federal government to rapidly deploy security and authentication mechanisms at the top level of the DNS hierarchy, which is known as the root zone. In recent weeks, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration has received 30-plus comments in favor of securing DNS root zone data. These comments are from the Internet Architecture Board and the Internet Society as well as ISPs and domain name operators such as PayPal, Akamai Technologies and Comcast. The root servers make it possible for top-level domains including .com, .net and .org to match domain names with corresponding IP addresses and Web sites."
