The survey now covers 6.4 million domains, so it is perhaps
time to post an updated distribution of RSA key sizes by
number of domains having at least one RSA DNSKEY of that
bit-length (for key sizes with 1000 or more domains).
* RSA key sizes above 2048 bits are not popular, and
perhaps unwise given the adverse impact on UDP.
* ZSKs are still predominantly 1024 bits but 1280
is perhaps a good next step.
* 1536-bit KSKs may be a good next step for those still
at 1024 bits, but reluctant to go all the way to 2048.
* The remaining 512-bit keys are disappearing *very*
slowly, it would be great to see more rapid progress
on that, especially by:
- gratisdns.dk: 7211 domains
- mijnhostingpartner.nl: 3647 domains
- zeptor.nl: 569 domains
KSK:
