-------------------- One of the established priorities for BC is “decreasing the incidence of DNS abuse” and we are very excited with the launch of Centralized DNS Abuse Reporting Service by DNS Abuse Institute. This service will make it easier for users to report DNS abuse and for registries and registrars to process reports. Link to the service - https://netbeacon.org/ <https://netbeacon.org/> https://circleid.com/posts/20220608-dns-abuse-institute-launches-centralized... #ICANN #BC #DNSAbuse —————— “Phishing attacks are on the rise”. This is the underlying theme of the 2021 IC3 Annual Report released by FBI. The report states that “the number of complaints related to "Phishing/Vishing/Smishing/Pharming" have been steadily increasing for the last 5 years with an increase of 25% in complaints between 2020 and 2021” For the complete report please visit - https://www.ic3.gov/Media/PDF/AnnualReport/2021_IC3Report.pdf #FBI #Phishing #ICANN #fraud —————————— The BC is proud to announce that the following members have been elected by the BC to represent it in the GNSO and the NomCom. GNSO Councillor - Mark Datysgeld BC NomCom Large Business Representative - Jordyn Buchanan BC NomCom Small Business Representative - Vivek Goyal These representatives will begin their term during ICANN 75 that will take place in Kuala Lumpur in September 2022. The ICANN NomCom is an independent committee tasked with selecting key ICANN leadership positions, including some members of the ICANN Board of Directors and the Public Technical Identifiers (PTI) Board, as well as other selections as set forth in the ICANN Bylaws. #ICANN #BC #NomCom ————————————— This year marks the 15th anniversary of the ICANN Fellowship Program, ICANN's oldest global capacity-development program. Launched in 2007 at ICANN29 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, the Fellowship Program was created to provide a gateway for individuals from underserved and underrepresented communities from around the world to become active members of the ICANN community. Many BC members started their journey with ICANN as fellows and are invaluable members of the ICANN community. Some stats to showcase the success of the program can be viewed here - https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/icann-fellowship-15-years-of-strength... #ICANN #BC #Fellowship #Domains ————————————————————— In the first quarter of 2022, APWG observed 1,025,968 total phishing attacks. This was the worst quarter for phishing that APWG has ever observed, and the first time that the quarterly total has exceeded one million. For full report please visit - https://apwg.org/trendsreports/ #Phishing #ICANN #BC ———————————————————————— On 13 May 2022, the Council and the European Parliament agreed on the Directive on measures for a high common level of cybersecurity across the EU (NIS 2 Directive), which adapts the previous NIS Directive to current needs. The BC has been very active in explaining issues with legitimate access to registrant data to the European Institutions. We believe that this directive will be a cornerstone in reducing DNS abuse and allow for the development of future policies that will help tackle this challenge.
