Dear Councillors, FYI. For those who may not be aware of the following you may want to have a look at the following revised directive. Thanks Steve for putting this together. Regards, Philippe -------- Message d'origine -------- De : Steve Chan <steve.chan@icann.org> Date : 16/12/2020 20:55 (GMT+01:00) À : gnso-chairs@icann.org Objet : [gnso-chairs] Directive on Security of Network and Information Systems (NIS 2 Directive) Hi Philippe, Pam, Tanya, You may already be aware, but we thought you might welcome being informed of a revised Directive published today by the European Commission, which will still be subject to much discussion and negotiation: https://ec.europa.eu/digital-single-market/en/news/proposal-directive-measur.... It may be relevant to the work of the GNSO, see Article 23 in particular: Article 23 Databases of domain names and registration data 1. For the purpose of contributing to the security, stability and resilience of the DNS, Member States shall ensure that TLD registries and the entities providing domain name registration services for the TLD shall collect and maintain accurate and complete domain name registration data in a dedicated database facility with due diligence subject to Union data protection law as regards data which are personal data. 2. Member States shall ensure that the databases of domain name registration data referred to in paragraph 1 contain relevant information to identify and contact the holders of the domain names and the points of contact administering the domain names under the TLDs. 3. Member States shall ensure that the TLD registries and the entities providing domain name registration services for the TLD have policies and procedures in place to ensure that the databases include accurate and complete information. Member States shall ensure that such policies and procedures are made publicly available. 4. Member States shall ensure that the TLD registries and the entities providing domain name registration services for the TLD publish, without undue delay after the registration of a domain name, domain registration data which are not personal data. 5. Member States shall ensure that the TLD registries and the entities providing domain name registration services for the TLD provide access to specific domain name registration data upon lawful and duly justified requests of legitimate access seekers, in compliance with Union data protection law. Member States shall ensure that the TLD registries and the entities providing domain name registration services for the TLD reply without undue delay to all requests for access. Member States shall ensure that policies and procedures to disclose such data are made publicly available. Once the NIS2 Directive proposal is agreed upon and consequently adopted, Member States will have to transpose it within 18 months. I will leave it up to you three to determine if this should be forwarded to the full Council list. Best, Steve Steven Chan
