[cid:image001.png@01DCE13D.57372A40] Dear All, You are invited to participate in this At-Large Webinar: At-Large Meets ICANN Contractual Compliance and NetBeacon Institute on Tuesday, 12 May 2026 at 13:00 UTC for 75 mins, to inform the At-Large in shaping its agenda to combat against DNS Abuse. DNS Abuse mitigation remains as a key focus area for the ALAC and At-Large community. It is generally accepted that DNS Abuse cannot be eliminated. However, it is also clear that it can be mitigated, and such mitigation efforts may take many forms and are often driven by various parties either working collaboratively or complementarily to bring about impact to protect end users against harm perpetrated by malicious domain name registrations. In prior meetings with the Security, Stability, and Resiliency team under the ICANN Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO-SSR)*, the At-Large learned about the OCTO-SSR’s scope, research and tools in DNS Abuse mitigation. At this webinar, the ALAC and At-Large community will hear from ICANN Contractual Compliance and the NetBeacon Institute to understand their respective roles and work in support of DNS Abuse mitigation. It is aimed at informing a discussion on what efforts the ALAC and At-Large community should focus on in this area. Join us to learn more and to offer your input to our agenda on DNS Abuse mitigation! *The At-Large met with OCTO-SSR at – * The 26 February 2026 At-Large Meets OCTO-SSR Webinar: ICANN83 ALAC-OCTO Joint Session Recap<https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AgD-Mw> on an introduction to OCTO-SSR and its work; * The 11 March 2026 ALAC-OCTO Session at ICANN85, Mumbai<https://icann85.sched.com/event/2Gwml/joint-session-alac-and-octo> to further understand the work of OCTO-SSR, including some new initiatives; and – which, together with this webinar, form part of the DNS Abuse Mitigation Capacity Development Track in the FY2026 At-Large Capacity Development Initiatives<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Hnv5EnPAOu99Narg13yTc1kOjozDArg_m6g_KQy…> Interpretation in English, French, and Spanish.

Encourage ALS and IMs to take such courses and report back. There is no fixed timeline for the same since we are launching it for first time. Additionally we understand that all are volunteers. That is why we are asking for 2 to max 5 leads, so that if someone cannot followup for sometime others can. But on the whole we are looking at 6-12 months for this campiagn Regards Amrita On Wed, 6 May 2026 at 00:52, Frederic Taes <icann(a)tsf.be> wrote: Dear Amrita, Thank you for having shared this opportunity and pointed out its importance.

Phishing campaigns, call to volunteers - Apply by May 8th
by Frederic Taes May 7, 2026

May 7, 2026

Dear all, Phishing is everyone's concern (and this mail is not phishing, right? ;-)) There's a request to provide, within 3 days, a _minimum_ of two persons (up to 5) to lead the ACES Phishing Campaign at EURALO side, so I'm making here a public call to volunteers interested in the topic of phishing. I think Mohammad Atif, as being active previously on this with ACES, would be an excellent one : Mohammad, can you confirm? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhqtFFqIxLU But we need 1 to 4 other candidates, who else would like to participate? I'm thinking about people having used the video or content, and people interested by building awareness about phishing. Understanding English is a need, however it would be good to enable further localization of the content. Please reply by this Friday at the latest. Thanks for your support, Frederic. -------- Message transféré -------- Sujet : [Secretariat] Imp: ACES Phishing Campaign: Please nominate a minimum of two RALO leads from the RALO I 8 May Date : Tue, 5 May 2026 16:13:36 +0530 De : Amrita Choudhury via Secretariat Dear RALO Chairs, On behalf of the ALAC Community Engagement Subcommittee (ACES), we request you to nominate a minimum of two persons (maximum of five) as the RALO lead who will be responsible for leading the ACES Phishing Campaign. It is preferred that the nominated persons can understand English as the module will be rolled out in English first. The *deadline to nominate is 8 May 2026.* The ACES team will provide training and a toolkit to the nominated RALO leads, who in turn will train interested members of your RALO to organize community-level training sessions. The RALO leads will also be responsible for driving the phishing campaign at the RALO level and coordinating with the ACES team. We look forward to the nominations and will be happy to respond to any questions or queries you may have. Please send the RALO nomination list to [REMOVED]. Regards, Amrita
