At the RIPE 52 meeting, the DNS Working Group asked us to provide statistics on secured delegations within RIPE NCC hosted zones. At the time of this e-mail, the figures are as follows: Total number of zones hosted as a primary by RIPE NCC - 113 Total number of primary zones that are signed - 72 Total number of NS records in all zones - 521,811 Total number of DS records in all zones - 61 We are of course happy to answer any questions about these numbers. Background Information: The RIPE NCC hosts the majority of the 41 unsigned zones on behalf of third parties. We can and will continue to expand the list of signed zones. The current keys for all zones that we sign are available at: https://www.ripe.net/projects/disi/keys/ripe-ncc-dnssec-keys-new.txt We accept signed delegations (DS records) for all in-addr.arpa zones where we are primary. We cannot currently accept signed delegations (DS records) for those zones in ERX space, where we are not primary for the zone. The two graphs attached to this e-mail show the distribution of both NS and DS records. Regards.
