.de country-code

Found

TLD: .de (country-code)
ICANN policies apply: no

Checks

i

.de is a country-code TLD (ccTLD)

Country-code TLD: governed by its local registry under national policy, not by an ICANN contract. Registrar accreditation, dispute resolution and RDAP/WHOIS rules are set by the registry.

#1
✓ TLD delegated and signed #2

.de is delegated in the root zone and DNSSEC-signed.
i

Registration data not available

No registration data via RDAP: the registry of .de offers no RDAP service. Many ccTLD registries don't offer RDAP; check the registry's WHOIS instead.

2 nameservers

Two nameservers meet the minimum; RFC 2182 recommends three or more for important zones: dns20.ovh.net, ns20.ovh.net.

#6
✓ Parent and zone agree #7

The parent delegation and the zone's NS records list the same nameservers.
✓ No glue needed #8

All nameservers are outside the zone, so no glue records are needed.
✓ All names resolve #9

Every nameserver name has an address and is not an alias.
✓ Nameservers in different networks #10

The nameservers are spread over 2 IPv4 /24s and 2 IPv6 /48s.
i

All nameservers in one AS

All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS16276 (OVH - OVH SAS, FR): 4 addresses). An outage or attack on that network affects all nameservers; large anycast providers mitigate this, but a secondary DNS provider adds independence.

#11
i

All nameserver names under .net

All nameserver names are under one TLD, so a problem with that TLD also makes the nameservers unreachable. Some operators use names under two TLDs for extra resilience.

#12
✓ All reachable over IPv6 #13

Every nameserver has an IPv6 address.

Checks

✓ TTLs within range #32

TTLs: A 1h, MX 1h, NS 1h. The NS TTL at the parent is 1d and in the zone 1h; resolvers may use either.
✓ No CNAME at the apex #33

The zone apex has no CNAME record.
i

Wildcard record

A random name under the zone resolves, so there is a wildcard (*) record. Typos and non-existent hosts resolve too, which can confuse mail and certificate checks.

No CAA records

Without CAA records any certificate authority may issue certificates for this domain. A CAA record limits issuance to the CAs you use.
