title: "Domain validation required for all sites"
published_date: "2024-05-06"
categories: [security, infrastructure]
---

As part of our continued effort to protect sites on our platform, Pantheon now requires all sites on the platform to prove domain ownership via TXT records. This enhances security by ensuring domain ownership and protection, safeguarding against domain hijacking by malicious actors.

### Highlights

* Easily validate domain ownership within the Pantheon dashboard.
* Allow exemption from domain validation for specific scenarios such as Wild Card domains.
* Validated domains are permanently protected from hijacking.
* Aligns with industry-standard hosting practices.
