How TheSiteFuse checks "CAA record"

The CAA record specifies which certificate authorities (like Let's Encrypt) are allowed to issue an SSL certificate for your domain. It's a whitelist for certificate issuers.

Real-world impact of "CAA record"

Without CAA, any certificate authority could theoretically issue a fraudulent certificate for your domain. CAA reduces this risk and protects against certain man-in-the-middle attacks.
