DNSSEC Checker

Check if a domain is properly DNSSEC-signed. Verify DNSKEY, DS, and AD-flag presence with our free DNSSEC validator.

About this DNSSEC Checker tool

DNSSEC adds cryptographic signatures to DNS responses so resolvers can detect tampering. CheckHub verifies the AD flag, fetches DNSKEY and DS records, and reports whether the chain validates.

How to use the DNSSEC Checker

  1. Step 1. Enter your domain.
  2. Step 2. CheckHub queries DNSKEY and DS records and inspects the AD flag in the response.
  3. Step 3. See whether each step of the trust chain is signed.
