Free DNS TLSA Record Checker Tool

Look up a host's published TLSA records and compare them with the certificate data returned by the check. TLSA records bind a TLS certificate or public key to a DNS name when the zone is protected by DNSSEC.

What the TLSA check shows

  • Published values: Review usage, selector, matching type, and certificate association data.
  • Certificate comparison: See whether the published association matches the certificate returned during the check.
  • DNS context: Review the authoritative nameservers returned for the queried host.

What is a TLSA record?

A TLSA record publishes a certificate or public-key association in DNS. DANE-aware clients can use it together with DNSSEC validation to verify the TLS endpoint independently of, or in addition to, the public certificate-authority system.

Benefits of Regular TLSA Record Checks:

  • Enhanced Security: Regular checks help maintain secure and authenticated TLS connections.
  • Increased Trust: Proper TLSA records build trust among users and clients by ensuring secure communications.
  • Protection Against Cyber Threats: Helps in defending against common security threats like interception and tampering.
