===Managed DNS===
Verisign's in-house [[DNS]] services are a globally deployed constellation of sites to offer a cloud-based DNS hosting service that enables organizations of all sizes with critical online systems to confidently move support for DNS resolution outside of their internal teams. Given Verisign's expertise and scale, their services reliably optimize availability and performance at what would be a fraction of the combined costs for system administrator time, patching, hardware purchase, deployment, maintenance, and bandwidth required to support DNS management internally. Using a secure Web-based portal, Verisign Managed DNS customers maintain secure, exclusive, and direct control over DNS data; including IP address, MX records, SOA values, aliases, PTR records, NS records, and text records. The portal also provides real-time record propagation, record-level control of time-to-live (TTL) settings, and zone file error-checking to reduce DNS outages from human error.<ref>[http://www.linkedin.com/company/verisign/verisign-managed-dns-483286/product?trk=biz_product Managed DNS, Products, LinkedIn.com]</ref>
