A recent progress report on DNSSEC adoption reveals the extent to which organizations in a number of industries are falling short of their own objectives for making Domain Name Server (DNS) infrastructure more secure. The progress report, conducted by Secure64 Software Corporation, is a follow-up to a 2010 study by Forrester Research titled, "DNSSEC Ready for Prime Time," which reported on organizations' plans to implement DNSSEC in order to shore up vulnerabilities in DNS.

"One of the most interesting aspects of the Forrester study was a survey of organizations that asked about their progress on DNSSEC adoption. Of the organizations that were familiar with DNSSEC, 95 percent told Forrester that they had already deployed DNSSEC or had plans to deploy it within 18 months. Secure64's followup research shows that those plans have not yet come to fruition," said Steve Goodbarn, CEO of Secure64.

Some of the key findings:

Media and Entertainment,

• 98 percent of 50 the world's leading media and entertainment organizations show no evidence of either trial deployments or full deployments of DNSSEC.
• Only one organization (Comcast) has fully deployed DNSSEC.

Telecommunications and Internet Service Providers,

• The telecommunication and internet service provider sector has also been slower to adopt DNSSEC than they indicated in the Forrester study.
• Secure64's analysis determined that none of the 60+ largest telecom/ISP companies in the world show evidence of either a trial or full deployment of DNSSEC.

Financial Services,

• As reported in statistics published by Secure64 in August, progress has been equally slow in the financial services sector. None of the world's leading banking/finance companies had fully deployed DNSSEC as of August.
• Only one banking organization showed evidence of a trial deployment of DNSSEC.
