DNSSEC DANE implementation manager. DANE is "DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities". It means securely letting the world know in advance what your public encryption keys are by publishing them as DNS records (TLSA, SSHFP, OPENPGPKEY, SMIMEA) in your DNSSEC-enabled internet domain zone. This is the simplest and most secure way to let the world know what keys to expect when connecting to your servers. This can apply to TLS keys, SSH host keys, and OpenPGP and S/MIME keys. This makes it possible to prevent impersonation or man-in-the-middle attacks. It's mostly used with mail servers. Eventually, it could render certificate authorities unnecessary. DNSSEC has become very easy.
