ICANN News Alert -- ICANN and SGNIC Conduct Workshop to Help Singapore Internet Community Combat DNS Abuse and Cybercrime
by ICANN At-Large Staff May 2, 2016

May 2, 2016

[ICANN]<http://www.icann.org/> News Alert https://www.icann.org/resources/press-material/release-2016-04-29-en ________________________________ ICANN and SGNIC Conduct Workshop to Help Singapore Internet Community Combat DNS Abuse and Cybercrime 29 April 2016 SINGAPORE... The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and the Singapore Network Information Centre (SGNIC) convened today, with experts from Singapore government agencies and Internet service and solutions providers, to conduct a workshop on methods and strategies to investigate and handle Domain Name System (DNS) abuse. The DNS translates domain names into IP addresses. This system ensures that anyone who enters a domain name or web address (e.g., www.icann.org) is directed to its corresponding site, defined by its IP address (192.0.34.163). DNS abuse covers a wide range of activities. While no globally accepted definition exists, examples of DNS abuse include cybercrime and hacking. Another tactic is malicious registrations; whereby malicious actors register a domain name fraudulently for the express purpose of carrying out destructive acts such as distributing malware. Malicious actors also use shortened URLs - lengthy domain addresses that are compacted - to obfuscate a domain name and redirect unsuspecting users to malicious sites. To help the Singapore Internet community better handle such abuses, ICANN and SGNIC organized a workshop to help them understand the different mitigation techniques against DNS abuse incidents. Mr. Queh Ser Pheng, General Manager of SGNIC, noted that many industry practitioners may not be readily equipped with the techniques to detect and mitigate exploits on domain names. He said, "With pervasive Internet usage in Singapore and the growing cybersecurity threats, SGNIC hopes that this initiative will help to raise awareness of DNS abuse with service providers and professionals." Mr. Queh added, "We are delighted that ICANN and SGNIC are strategically aligned in our fight against DNS abuse, and we welcome this collaboration with ICANN." "As the coordinator of the Internet's global DNS, ICANN's mission is to help preserve and enhance the stability, security and resiliency of the DNS by working with the global Internet community. Besides industry practitioners, we also work with law enforcement agencies to help equip them to conduct investigations into DNS abuse," said Mr. Jia-Rong Low, Vice President and Managing Director for ICANN Asia Pacific. "The ICANN APAC hub office is in Singapore, and we are proud to be able to contribute to the community here." # # # Media Contacts ICANN Fiona Aw Global Communications Coordinator Tel: +65 6816 1264 Email: fiona.aw(a)icann.org<mailto:fiona.aw@icann.org> SGNIC/IDA Adrian Chan Manager, Corporate and Marketing Communications Division Tel: +65 6211 1510 Email: Adrian_KM_Chan(a)ida.gov.sg<mailto:Adrian_KM_Chan@ida.gov.sg> About ICANN ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure and unified global Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you have to type an address into your computer - a name or a number. That address has to be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a not-for-profit public-benefit corporation and a community with participants from all over the world. ICANN and its community help keep the Internet secure, stable and interoperable. It also promotes competition and develops policy for the top-level of the Internet's naming system and facilitates the use of other unique Internet identifiers. For more information, visit: http://www.icann.org<https://www.icann.org>. About SGNIC The mission of Singapore Network Information Centre Pte Ltd (SGNIC) is to provide Internet registry and information services in an efficient, effective and reliable manner to enhance the security, stability and resiliency of the Internet Domain Name System (DNS) infrastructure in Singapore and to foster the integrity and growth of .sg domain names.
