I need some details on DNSSEC implementation
I need a detailed description on DNSSEC. What is it and for what does it stands for. It is a prime requirement for internet technology. If yes then why so. I think this term belongs to some domain protection service. But I am not sure about the same and that creates doubts in my mind. I am also not so advance in this but my job is related.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, it is use to circulate database that comprises mappings between names and other information in sequence, such as IP addresses. DNS permits users to establish resources on the network by interpreting friendly, human- readable names to the IP addresses that computers can connect to.

DNS is a dangerous communications service that sustain or maintain the Internet and commercial networks. Users and submissions infrequently ever attempt to locate other computers directly by IP address; name resolution is performed first instead. Web, e-mail, and instant messaging, submissions and technologies like Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) rely on DNS to perform their operations.

Because of the DNS does not present any form of sanctuary, it is susceptible to spoofing, man-in-the-middle and accumulation the poisoning attacks. Attacks of this kind can cooperation all the future communications to the host. For this explanation, it has become dangerous to develop a means for securing DNS.

Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) is a collection of conservatory that add sanctuary to the DNS protocol. The core DNSSEC conservatory are specified in RFCs 4033, 4034, and 4035, with additional RFCs providing supporting information in sequence. Specifically, DNSSEC presents the origin authority, data integrity, and authenticated denial of subsistence. In addition to several new perceptions and operations for both the DNS server and the DNS client, DNSSEC introduces four new resource records (DNSKEY, RRSIG, NSEC and DS) to DNS.

Re: I need some details on DNSSEC implementation
In Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008, DNSSEC is implemented on inferior or less important zones as explained in RFC 2535. Because RFC 2535 has been made outdated by the formerly mentioned RFCs, the Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 implementations are not interoperable with the Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7 implementation.
