DNSSEC Statistics
of ccTLDs in Africa
Welcome to our page, where we provide detailed insights into the DNSSEC signing status of the 54 two-letter country code top-level domains (ccTLDs) assigned to Africa.
For each signed ccTLD, you'll find key information, including the DNSSEC signing algorithm currently in use, the tag (ID) of each Key Signing Key (KSK) in the ccTLD zone, and the date a Delegation Signer (DS) record was first observed in the root zone, along with more details.
You can also use filters to focus on specific sub-regions, signing statuses, or other criteria based on your interests. Additionally, we offer graphs that give a clear overview of global DNSSEC trends for added context.
Keywords:
DS: Delegation Signer
DNSKEY: A resource record in any DNSSEC signed zone. It is where the public part of the ZSK and KSK are published.
No DNSSEC: ccTLD has not signed their zone file, no DNSKEY present in the zone, and No DS in root zone.
DNSSEC Signed - Not active: ccTLD is DNSSEC signed with DNSKEY present in the zone but No DS present in root zone.
DNSSEC Active: ccTLD is DNSSEC signed with DNSKEY present in zone and DS present in root zone.
