- <h3>Why DNS-rooted trust beats CA-rooted PKI for agent discovery</h3>
188
- <ul style="line-height:1.8;color:#cbd5e1;">
189
- <li><strong>Universal infrastructure.</strong> Every domain already has DNS. Adding WAB is one TXT record, not a CA enrollment ceremony.</li>
190
- <li><strong>Single trust root.</strong> The agent already trusts <code>example.com</code> for TLS. WAB reuses the same identity — no new authorities to vouch for.</li>
191
- <li><strong>Tamper resistance.</strong> DNSSEC + TLS + Ed25519 = three independent layers. An attacker must break all three, not just one CA.</li>
192
- <li><strong>Fast revocation.</strong> Drop the TXT record → resolvers honour TTL → revoked globally in seconds. No CRL polling, no OCSP staple.</li>
193
- <li><strong>Zero new dependencies.</strong> No PKI vendor, no transparency log, no out-of-band registry. Agents that resolve DNS already have everything they need.</li>
194
- </ul>
195
- </div>
196
-
197
- <div class="quote">
198
- <strong>The bottom line:</strong> WAB v1.3 matches PKI-grade protocols on cryptographic guarantees while keeping the operational footprint of a single DNS record — and it's the only protocol that ships with one-click integrations across all 7 major DNS providers and a live public trust API.

+ <h3>Why DNS-rooted trust beats CA-rooted PKI for agent discovery</h3>
188
+ <ul style="line-height:1.8;color:#cbd5e1;">
189
+ <li><strong>Universal infrastructure.</strong> Every domain already has DNS. Adding WAB is one TXT record, not a CA enrollment ceremony.</li>
190
+ <li><strong>Single trust root.</strong> The agent already trusts <code>example.com</code> for TLS. WAB reuses the same identity — no new authorities to vouch for.</li>
191
+ <li><strong>Tamper resistance.</strong> DNSSEC + TLS + Ed25519 = three independent layers. An attacker must break all three, not just one CA.</li>
192
+ <li><strong>Fast revocation.</strong> Drop the TXT record → resolvers honour TTL → revoked globally in seconds. No CRL polling, no OCSP staple.</li>
193
+ <li><strong>Zero new dependencies.</strong> No PKI vendor, no transparency log, no out-of-band registry. Agents that resolve DNS already have everything they need.</li>
194
+ </ul>
195
+ </div>
196
+
197
+ <div class="quote">
198
+ <strong>The bottom line:</strong> WAB v1.3 matches PKI-grade protocols on cryptographic guarantees while keeping the operational footprint of a single DNS record — and it's the only protocol that ships with one-click integrations across all 7 major DNS providers and a live public trust API.
