About this tag
The key signing key (KSK) is a critical component of DNSSEC (DNS Security Extensions) on Windows Server. It is used to sign the zone signing key (ZSK), which in turn signs DNS records. The KSK is typically larger and has a longer validity period than the ZSK, providing an additional layer of security. Proper management of the key signing key, including secure storage and regular rotation, is essential for maintaining the integrity and authenticity of DNS data. This tag covers topics related to configuring, managing, and troubleshooting the key signing key in DNSSEC deployments on Windows Server, helping administrators protect against DNS spoofing and cache poisoning attacks.
