DNSSEC (Domain Name System Security Extensions) adds a layer of security to the DNS system. It verifies the authenticity of DNS responses, preventing DNS spoofing and cache poisoning attacks. Cloudflare DNS supports DNSSEC, ensuring that your DNS requests are validated and that you are receiving accurate information. This protects against malicious websites redirecting you to phishing sites.
