The list is extended with entries for root server names and addresses built-in resolvers, and provided via a root hints file with the lowest trustworthiness, as wel as an entry for data which is verifiable DNSSEC secure with the highest trustworthiness. This document furthermore assigns ranked values to the positions of the list for easier reference and comparison of trustworthiness of DNS data.
