Si, muy buenas noticias :-)
Aunque también nos esta poniendo presión en implementar en
Latinoamérica DNSSEC a nivel de ccTLDs y apoyar a los ISPs a que se
suban al carro.

pregunta: aparte del caso de Brazil, que otro país esta trabajando en
implementar DNSSEC?

Nosotros en Chile empezamos el estudio este año y nos encantaría
colaborar con más gente interesada.

saludos,
