The malicious use or registration of domain names, often referred to as DNS abuse, has been a topic of significant interest for many stakeholders for many years. The ICANN Board will hold a discussion with a panel of senior Internet security professionals on the topic. The session is designed to allow the ICANN Board to engage directly with various experts as it continues to formulate its views on what are the appropriate roles and responsibilities for ICANN in mitigating DNS abuse. The panel discussion will be held virtually via Zoom on Friday, 22 October 2021, from 16:00-20:00 UTC.
