DNSSEC pioneer inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame

Netnod would like to congratulate .SE's Head of Security Anne-Marie Eklund Löwinder for being the first swede to become inducted to Internet Hall of Fame. 

She joins famous Internet names such as Vint Cerf and Jon Postel in the Internet Hall of Fame, receiving recognition for their important work on the Internet.

Anne-Marie is being inducted in recognition of her longstanding work to implement and spread DNSSEC. The motivation by the Internet Hall of Fame, includes the following: 

"Anne-Marie Eklund Löwinder has been an innovator in the implementation of the Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC), which enables users to be sure they are visiting a legitimate website. Since 1999, when the protocol was introduced, she has spurred the development of both its technology and its usage procedures. Mrs. Eklund Löwinder made sure that .SE became the world’s first top-level domain to be signed with DNSSEC, in 2005."

At Netnod we are proud of working together with Anne-Marie and .SE!
