  .com is a generic TLD (gTLD)

  Generic TLD under an ICANN registry agreement: ICANN-accredited registrars, UDRP and RDAP apply.

  #1
• ✓ TLD delegated and signed #2

  .com is delegated in the root zone and DNSSEC-signed.
• ✓ Expires on 2027-01-27 #3

  The registration is valid until 2027-01-27 (96 days).
• ✓ Transfer locked #4

  Registry status: client transfer prohibited.
• ✓ Registry and delegation match #5

  The nameservers registered at the registry are the ones published in DNS.

• ✓ 4 nameservers #6

  Delegated to ns-cloud-c1.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-c2.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-c3.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-c4.googledomains.com.
• ✓ 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.

  One address family in one network

  all IPv6 addresses are in 2001:4860:4802::/48, while the other address family is spread over several networks.

  #10
• i

  All nameservers in one AS

  All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS15169 (GOOGLE - Google LLC, US): 8 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 .com

  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.

DS at the parent

DNSKEY in the zone

Checks

• ✓ Signed and validated #27

  The zone is signed, the parent publishes a DS record, and the resolver validates the answers.
• ✓ DS matches a key #28

  The DS record at the parent matches a key in the zone: key tag 17474 (SHA256).
• ✓ Modern algorithms #29

  Key algorithms: RSASHA256 (8).
• ✓ Signatures valid until 2026-11-12 #30

  The earliest DNSKEY/SOA signature expires at 2026-11-12 05:34 UTC.
• i

  NSEC

  The zone uses NSEC, so its full contents can be listed by walking the NSEC chain. That is fine unless the names are sensitive.

216.239.32.108:53

Checks

• ✓ TTLs within range #32

  TTLs: A 1h, MX 1h, NS 6h. The NS TTL at the parent is 2d and in the zone 6h; resolvers may use either.
• ✓ No CNAME at the apex #33

  The zone apex has no CNAME record.
• ✓ No wildcard #34

  Names that don't exist return NXDOMAIN.

  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.
