Microsoft Exchange Online will support inbound SMTP DANE with DNSSEC starting from lMay 2024. Inbound SMTP DANE with DNSSEC will be off by default, and if you do not want to enable the feature, you do not need to do anything. If you want to enable the feature, follow the documentation using Exchange PowerShell. Review your domain configuration internally to ensure you won't be impacted by any of the limitations.
Updated April 15, 2024: We have updated the timing of the Preview below. Thank you for your patience.
We are adding support for DNS-based Authentication of Named Entities (or DANE) for SMTP and Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) for inbound mail to Exchange Online. DANE for SMTP is a security protocol that uses DNS to verify the authenticity of the certificates used for securing email communication with TLS and protecting against TLS downgrade attacks. DNSSEC is a set of extensions to DNS that provides cryptographic verification of DNS records, preventing DNS-spoofing and adversary-in-the-middle attacks to DNS.

Not supported: Fully delegated domain, onmicrosoft.com domains, and domains purchased from Microsoft known as “viral” or self-service sign-up domains
Supported with risk: 3rd-party gateways, connectors, and integration with hybrid mail flow (ex. if you are using a connector to smarthost to a domain that you want to enable with DNSSEC, you need to update the smarthost name for that connector [ex. contoso-com.mail.protection.outlook.com] to match the new MX record that will be provided during DNSSEC enablement or, preferably, to match the tenant's onmicrosoft.com domain [ex. tenant-name.onmicrosoft.com] before enabling the feature.)
