Implement DNSSEC

Activate DNSSEC with your domain registrar and add the DS records to your parent zone. This protects against DNS spoofing attacks.

Impact: Significantly increases security and prevents DNS manipulation

Review verification TXT records

Your domain has many third-party verification records that reveal your tech stack (Google, Microsoft, Atlassian, etc.). Review each one: 1) Remove records for services no longer used 2) Consider if each service really needs domain verification 3) Use a subdomain for less critical services. This is an information disclosure issue - attackers can map your SaaS footprint.

Impact: Reduces reconnaissance surface and limits attacker knowledge of your infrastructure

Enable HTTP/3 (QUIC)

Enable HTTP/3 for faster page loads and improved connection resilience. Nginx: add "listen 443 quic reuseport;" and "add_header Alt-Svc 'h3=":443"; ma=86400'". Caddy: HTTP/3 is enabled by default. Cloudflare: Enable under Speed → Protocol Optimization. Also add an HTTPS DNS record: example.com IN HTTPS 1 . alpn="h3,h2" Ensure UDP port 443 is open in your firewall (QUIC uses UDP, not TCP).

Impact: Faster page loads (0-RTT), better mobile performance, and connection migration between networks
