NEW: Register Now: Informational Session on DNS Abuse: Panel Discussion with the ICANN Board

 

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) today announced an informational session on Domain Name System (DNS) abuse with the ICANN Board before the ICANN72 meeting. The malicious use or registration of domain names, often referred to as DNS abuse, within the ICANN community has been a topic of significant interest for many stakeholders for many years. The 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 22 October 2021, from 16.00 - 20.00 UTC.

 

Please register [r20.rs6.net] in advance to receive details on how to join the webinar. We kindly ask you to refrain from sharing your unique link received upon registration.

NEW: Hats off to the DNS Security Facilitation Initiative TSG for Exceptional Report

 

Göran Marby [r20.rs6.net], President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

 

In May 2020, I established the Domain Name System Security Facilitation Initiative Technical Study Group (DSFI-TSG) in response to significant attacks on the Domain Name System (DNS), such as the Sea Turtle hijacking [r20.rs6.net] and the DNSpionage [r20.rs6.net]. The group was chartered to investigate potential mechanisms to strengthen collaboration and communication on the security and stability issues that impact the DNS, and to offer recommendations for how ICANN org may best serve to improve the security, stability, and resiliency of the global DNS.

 

 

 

REMINDER: ICANN72 Board Workshop: DNS Abuse Informational Discussion

 

The ICANN Board of Directors holds a regular workshop prior to each ICANN meeting. For ICANN72 the Board workshop program will include a Board discussion with a panel of security professionals and experts, to enhance the Board’s understanding of what constitutes DNS abuse and how various organizations are approaching its mitigation. This session will be held on Friday 22 October, from 16:00 - 19:30 UTC. It will be open to the community to attend, although, as is customary with other open Board sessions, attendees will not be able to interact directly with the speakers. Further details about the session, including speakers and how to register, will be published shortly on the ICANN org website.
