Root Zone DNSSEC Operational Update
by Wessels, Duane June 10, 2025

June 10, 2025

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Verisign, in its role as the root zone ZSK operator, is transitioning to a new Hardware Security Module (HSM) product for the root zone's Zone Signing Key (ZSK). The current HSM vendor, Ultra Intelligence & Communications, has announced their KeyperPLUS will no longer be supported by them. Verisign will use an HSM product from Thales for the root zone ZSK going forward. On July 1, 2025 we will begin using the Thales HSM to sign the root zone on a daily basis. Although we anticipate this will be a seamless change for end users and anticipate no problems, prudence dictates that we need a backout plan, should it become necessary. As part of our backout plan, we will be post-publishing the previous quarter's ZSK for a longer than normal period of time. Normally, following a quarterly ZSK rollover, the previous key is post-published for a period of 10 days. As part of our HSM transition, we will instead post-publish the previous ZSK for a period of 80 days. This provides ample time to remediate any issues that may arise as part of this transition, and should it become necessary, to revert to using the old HSM to sign the root zone. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEvEG6oyZuoN5HQhnubJmkaajAmI0FAmhGex8ACgkQbJmkaajA mI1MEQgAo5/CB0GHYJq+4EqPCecevajsAhjcr4NXxViKyU5K3E//DwR82LIC9p6T HWLY1C0tiFk2Sg/3FbxF2arnUVC9yPJHOI5y2O+AE/BJibSVCyEEse+CbQkVljEd peaHNkkqp96AGgJiZv1On+B63Nog4CBrGMRxD14J0IAZShGbFqDZLRo6VhTHCCf+ isea/+1LbAbe/r2lTbm72q3a5lt/br6yRl37MZAbsJh8PyOAQE54jcnMlypL3qlx VribLjYduQAyKfUgMfVOXOionoY8i+4u1Rce9GXC130jklW7KXsp4un0SCGT5ByV gQWK5Hz73A4039CiUtjm3WqoIILIcg== =kLWP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Call for Presentations Hybrid TechDay ICANN 83 Prague
by Dr Eberhard W Lisse June 5, 2025

June 5, 2025

As per our previous call we still have room on the agenda. Please also note that NIC.CZ is contemplating favorably our suggestion to have something like a Knot DNS Masterclass in addition to Techday. This would probably happen on Wednesday (2025-06-11) afternoon and as seats will be limited to around 30 we would like to have interested parties email to ccNSO-techday(a)icann.org (which is read by the organizers) as soon as possible. vTechDay at ICANN 83 (Prague) The ICANN Tech Working Group is again planning a technical workshop at the ICANN 83 meeting (Prague) As the meeting will be hybrid so will be vTechDay which is currently penciled in for Monday, 2025-06-09 for blocks: Block 1 09:00 - 10:15 am local time / 07:00 - 08:15 UTC Block 2 10:45 - 12:15 pm local time / 08:45 - 10:15 UTC We shall try to accommodate the time zone of virtual presenters in setting the agenda. The TechDay workshop has been a part of ICANN meetings since 2006 and has provided a forum for both experienced and new people to meet, present and discuss technical topics related to registry and DNS work and security. We are specially interested in: 1. DNSSEC 2. DNS Abuse Prevention and Mitigation Tools 3. Best (security) management practices, lines of defense, to protect Registries from bad actors, attacks or malware, or even reports of failures 4. Open Source Tools that have been found helpful a) We would in particular like to hear about git based DNS zone management, especially simple setups usable as example for other (smaller) (cc|g)TLDs. b) We would also like to hear about further RDAP client implementations for the command line, devices and libraries. If there are enough proposals we might have round tables. 5. In addition, we welcome suggestions for additional topics If you are interested in presenting, please email us at ccNSO-techday(a)icann.org or reply to this email. We hope that you can join us and request that you disseminate this Request to other lists where it might of interest. greetings, el -- Dr. Eberhard W.
