Ever since the launch of our DNS scan, we’ve had the warning about mismatched NS records. Many users choose to ignore this, but there’s a pretty good reason we give a big warning whenever those records don’t line up. In this blogpost, we’ll show what can happen with misconfigured NS records.

It’s been a bit quiet on the DNS Spy front lately, hasn’t it? Well, today is about to change that. We’ve launched a big update to DNS Spy. Mostly behind the scenes improvement, but certainly a few things everyone can enjoy!

Why pay for a service if you have no idea if it’s even good? We get that. We feel the same. Heck, I wouldn’t pay for something without trying it. When we cancelled our free tier a few weeks ago, we heard 2 dominant pieces of feedback: the need for a smaller plan and the need to test the service, before committing. The first we addressed with the Light plan, starting at 4.99€/month. The second we fix today.

When we announced we were cancelling our free tier few a few weeks ago, we got a lot of replies. Both publicly and privately, and we’d like to thank you all for the kind & valuable feedback we’ve been given! One overwhelming theme was the request for a smaller DNS Spy plan, to monitor less sites, that doesn’t start at 9.99€/month.

A blog is usually a place where companies brag about their achievements, how awesome an organization is to work at, the cool new clients they launched, … Our plan is make this blog pretty much the same, but before we get there – we have to make an announcement first. From now, there is no longer a free plan on DNS Spy.

As of September 2017, every Certificate Authority is obligated to check the CAA DNS records for a domain it is about to issue a certificate to. This gives more control to the domain owner and can limit which Certificate Authorities are allowed to issue certificates.

I started to created a DNS monitoring & validation solution called DNS Spy and I'm happy to report: it has launched! It's been in private beta starting in 2016 and in public beta since March 2017. After almost 6 months of feedback, features and bugfixes, I think it's ready to kick the tires.
