App Concept

DNSSEC Guard

DNSSEC Guard is a monitoring service that continuously checks your domain's DNSSEC status across multiple resolvers worldwide. It alerts you instantly when validation fails and provides a clear diagnostic report to your registrar, accelerating resolution. It can be configured to automatically disable DNSSEC (via API where supported) to minimize downtime until the registrar fixes the root cause.

Key Features

Continuous DNSSEC validation checking from global vantage points
Instant alerts via email, SMS, and webhook when failures are detected
Integration with popular registrars' APIs to temporarily disable DNSSEC if supported
Automated diagnostic report generation for support tickets

Target Users: Website owners and IT administrators who manage domains with DNSSEC enabled, especially those relying on uptime for revenue or ad campaigns.

Revenue Model: Freemium with $9/mo per domain for advanced monitoring and alerts
