Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) in taking a major step to ensure the continued security, stability, and resiliency of the Domain Name System (DNS). While imperceptible to most users, this action - specifically, the introduction of a new Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) Key Signing Key (KSK) in the root zone - is the next step of a multi-year-long process to change, or "roll," the cryptographic key that secures the root of the DNS. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts/the-2024-2026-root-zone-ksk-rollover-initial-observations-and-early-trends" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/3397" class="blue">Duane Wessels</a></li> <li><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/the-2024-2026-root-zone-ksk-rollover-initial-observations-and-early-trends">0 Comments</a></li> <li>Views: 951</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/beyond-whois-circleid-and-edgemoor-research-institute-second-event-on-filling-the-gaps">Beyond WHOIS: CircleID and Edgemoor Research Institute Second Event on ‘Filling the Gaps’</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 19, 2025 11:04 AM PDT </div> <p> Experts at a CircleID and Edgemoor Research Institute webinar debated the challenges of domain registration data access in a post-GDPR world.

And it is a battlefield in the 21st century wars. Both in the "Bayerischer Hof" and in the "IHK Munich", where the 11th edition of the Munich Cybersecurity Conference (MCSC) took place, controversial debates circled around the question of how civilian and military use of digital services will interplay in the years to come. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts/bad-news-from-the-2025-munich-security-conference-cyberspace-gets-weaponized" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/5851" class="blue">Wolfgang Kleinwächter</a></li> <li><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/bad-news-from-the-2025-munich-security-conference-cyberspace-gets-weaponized">0 Comments</a></li> <li>Views: 5,042</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/cyber-resilience-resources-restructuring">Cyber Resilience Resources Restructuring</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 08, 2025 9:45 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_6809.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="Anthony Rutkowski" /> Information and Communications (ICT) infrastructures rely on many globally shared critical resilience information resources for diverse essential functions such as identifiers, routing, and cyber security. However, this ICT ecosystem has rapidly become significantly less stable and collaborative with dramatically diminished respect for legal norms and values because of the new USA national Administration. The instability includes the vicarious, wholesale removal of essential public safety and scientific databases, as well as global collaboration with multiple global UN public safety bodies. One result is the scaling of Digital Sovereignty initiatives. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts/cyber-resilience-resources-restructuring" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/6809" class="blue">Anthony Rutkowski</a></li> <li><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/cyber-resilience-resources-restructuring">2 Comments</a></li> <li>Views: 4,720</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/the-2024-ipv4-market-in-north-america">The 2024 IPv4 Market in North America</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 07, 2025 8:00 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_6982.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="Janine Goodman" /> Between 2021 and 2023, the IPv4 market was a roller coaster ride - prices shot up in 2021, peaked in 2022, and plummeted in 2023. Those who expected a recovery in 2024 were sadly disappointed. Prices for IP addresses continued to decline, leveling out during the second half of the year. And yet, market activity remained remarkably unaffected - a sign, perhaps, that the market is settling into a new normal. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts/the-2024-ipv4-market-in-north-america" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/6982" class="blue">Janine Goodman</a></li> <li><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/the-2024-ipv4-market-in-north-america">0 Comments</a></li> <li>Views: 3,946</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/braive-new-world-part-1-brand-protection-clustering-as-a-candidate-task-for-the-application-of-ai-capabilities">Br’AI’ve New World - Part 1: Brand Protection ‘Clustering’ as a Candidate Task for the Application of AI Capabilities</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 05, 2025 9:00 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_8564.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="David Barnett" /> As counterfeit networks grow more elusive, AI-driven clustering could revolutionize brand protection.

They published their findings in "Backdooring Your Backdoors -- Another $20 Domain, More Governments" and, in the process, identified 34 domains as indicators of compromise (IoCs). <a href="https://circleid.com/posts/dns-deep-dive-peeking-into-back-doors-to-abandoned-but-live-backdoors" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/8352" class="blue">WhoisXML API</a></li> <li>Views: 3,134</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/ipv4-prices-edge-up-as-demand-remains-strong">IPv4 Prices Edge Up as Demand Remains Strong (January IPv4 Report)</a></h3> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_8622.gif" border="0" width="80" alt="IPv4.Global" /> The market for IPv4 addresses continues to show resilience, with January 2025 figures indicating a modest uptick in pricing across several block sizes. Data from IPv4.Global by Hilco Streambank reveals that while average prices hovered in the low-to-mid $30s per address, the actual range of transactions was significantly broader, spanning from $28 to $48 per address. This highlights the persistent pricing variability driven by block size, buyer urgency, and negotiation dynamics. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts/ipv4-prices-edge-up-as-demand-remains-strong" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/8622" class="blue">IPv4.Global</a></li> <li>Views: 4,810</li> </ul> </div> <a href="https://circleid.com/industry" class="sectionFooter red">View More</a> </div> <h2><a href="https://circleid.com/guides" class="red">Industry Guides</a></h2> <div class="postListMini"> <h3 style="padding-top:0;margin-top:0;border:none;"><a href="https://circleid.com/guides/dedicated-ip-vpn">Dedicated IP VPN: Complete Guide, Benefits, Setup & More</a></h3> <p> What is a Dedicated IP VPN? A Dedicated IP VPN is a <a href="https://circleid.com/guides/what-is-vpn">Virtual Private Network (VPN) service</a> that provides users with a unique, static IP address assigned exclusively to them. Unlike a shared IP address, which is used by multiple users simultaneously, a dedicated IP is reserved for a single user, offering greater control and security over their online activities. <a href="https://circleid.com/guides/dedicated-ip-vpn" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9476" class="blue">CircleID Editorial</a></li> <li>Views: 9,414</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="https://circleid.com/guides/starlink-internet-service">Starlink Internet Service (2024 Review)</a></h3> <p> Starlink provides high-speed, low-latency satellite internet, making it ideal for rural and remote areas lacking traditional broadband.

However, they cannot see the content of your data or the websites you visit while the VPN is active because the data is encrypted. This provides privacy for your online activities, though the fact that you're using a VPN itself is visible to the ISP. <a href="https://circleid.com/guides/can-isp-see-vpn" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9476" class="blue">CircleID Editorial</a></li> <li>Views: 9,163</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="https://circleid.com/guides/what-is-satellite-internet">What is Satellite Internet?
