RFC 8659: DNS Certification Authority Authorization (CAA) Resource Record
Recent RFCs 2019-11-20
Summary:
The Certification Authority Authorization (CAA) DNS Resource Record
allows a DNS domain name holder to specify one or more Certification
Authorities (CAs) authorized to issue certificates for that domain
name. CAA Resource Records allow a public CA to implement additional
controls to reduce the risk of unintended certificate mis-issue.
This document defines the syntax of the CAA record and rules for
processing CAA records by CAs.
This document obsoletes RFC 6844.
