During ICANN77, the ccNSO Internet Governance Liaison Committee (IGLC) organized a session on legislative initiatives relating to cybersecurity and how they affect ccTLDs. The ccNSO established the IGLC to coordinate, facilitate, and increase the participation of ccTLD managers in discussions and processes pertaining to Internet governance. ccTLDs from different ICANN geographical regions will explore how various national or regional legislative initiatives relating to cybersecurity impact them. During the session, presenters will also explore the challenges these initiatives pose for the Internet and the ICANN multistakeholder model and potential points of interaction between the various legal frameworks.
