This delegation doesn't play the same role as CAs in WebPKI. Without DNSSEC's guarantees, the DANE TLSA records would be as insecure as self-signed certificates in WebPKI are. It's not enough to have some certificate from some CA involved. It has to be a part of an unbroken chain of trust anchored to something that the client can verify. So you're dependent on the DNSSEC infrastructure and its authorities for security, and you can't ignore or replace that part in the DANE model. |
