width="80" alt="" /> On Jan. 11, 2025, Verisign supported the Internet 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. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/3397" class="blue">Duane Wessels</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 820</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/icann-csg-and-ncsg-make-progress-at-icann81">ICANN CSG and NCSG Make Progress at ICANN81</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Dec 23, 2024 2:25 PM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_552.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> The Commercial Stakeholder Group and Non-Commercial Stakeholder Group (together, the Non-Contracted Party House, or NCPH) met for a daylong Day 0 session on 8 November 2024, immediately prior to the opening of the ICANN81 meeting in Istanbul. This meeting follows one of a similar nature conducted prior to ICANN78 in Hamburg, which was the first joint NCPH meeting following the pandemic. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/552" class="blue">Mason Cole</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 7,762</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/multistakerholderism-and-its-discontents-a-reply">Multistakerholderism and Its Discontents: A Reply</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Dec 10, 2024 11:31 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_9480.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> Twenty years after multistakeholderism helped save the Free Internet and present-day Internet governance from a potentially existential crises, the term is again triggering some strong emotions. There are very real questions around definitions, accountability, participation, and even legitimacy in all multistakeholder models. Within Internet governance, there are declared enemies of the multistakeholder approach... </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9480" class="blue">Alexander Klimburg</a></li> <li>Comments: 5</li> <li>Views: 10,604</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/exploring-the-impact-of-whois-data-redaction-on-unsolicited-emails">Exploring the Impact of WHOIS Data Redaction on Unsolicited Emails</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Dec 09, 2024 7:23 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_7486.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> In the digital age, personal data protection has become paramount, with regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) shaping global practices. One area significantly affected is the public availability of WHOIS data, a critical resource in the domain name system. WHOIS traditionally provided detailed contact information for domain registrants, but privacy measures have redacted much of this data in recent years. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/7486" class="blue">Tobias Sattler</a></li> <li>Comments: 4</li> <li>Views: 9,968</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/why-we-need-to-discard-the-word-multistakeholder">Why We Need to Discard the Word “Multistakeholder”</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Nov 11, 2024 2:26 PM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_1121.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> A CircleID post by Alexander Klimburg takes aim at my article, "The Power to Govern Ourselves," delivered at the Gig-Arts conference in June. That speech, available here on the blog, argued that: "Multistakeholder does not describe a governance model. It never has. It was always a compromised Public Relations concept," one that muddied the distinction between governance by state actors and non-state actors. What really made the Internet institutions unique was their break with sovereignty. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/1121" class="blue">Milton Mueller</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 5,327</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/internet-two-bodies-understanding-the-multistakeholder-reign">The Internet’s Two Bodies: Understanding the Multistakeholder Reign</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Nov 05, 2024 8:44 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_9480.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> The reports of multistakeholder Internet governance's demise are greatly exaggerated. This article explores the dual nature of multistakeholderism: its evolving, sometimes contentious practice as the "First Body," and its enduring principle of actor plurality as the "Second Body." Despite criticism and challenges, multistakeholderism remains crucial for a resilient, non-state-led Internet, underscoring the need to adapt and uphold its foundational pluralism. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9480" class="blue">Alexander Klimburg</a></li> <li>Comments: 3</li> <li>Views: 4,420</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/attacking-dns-abuse-the-next-amendments-needed">Attacking DNS Abuse: The Next Amendments Needed</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Nov 04, 2024 9:02 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_552.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> Abusive behavior that leverages the domain name system (DNS) continues to be a problem, with a reach that has been widely and credibly documented. There is little doubt that bad actors continue to use the DNS for nefarious and costly purposes. While the amendments made in 2024 to ICANN's Registry Agreement (RA) and Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA) were a step in the right direction, more advanced tools are needed to bring abuse rates down. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/552" class="blue">Mason Cole</a></li> <li>Comments: 2</li> <li>Views: 4,932</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/nis2-article-28-guidance-dns-abuse">NIS2 Article 28 Guidance: A Positive Step Toward Reducing DNS Abuse Across Europe</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Oct 28, 2024 7:45 AM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_9478.png" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> The European Union (EU) has set a high bar by tackling domain name system (DNS) abuse head on via government regulation and seems to have successfully resisted attempts to water down DNS stewardship obligations. Recent guidance from a key European Commission cooperation group (the NIS Cooperation Group) handling sections of the Network and Information Security Directive (NIS2) intends for a robust implementation of Article 28, which will go a long way toward helping to mitigate some of the longstanding problems that persist in the DNS. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9478" class="blue"> David Hughes</a></li> <li>Comments: 2</li> <li>Views: 7,780</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/verisign-and-icann-renew-root-zone-maintainer-service-agreement">Verisign and ICANN Renew Root Zone Maintainer Service Agreement</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Oct 23, 2024 10:16 AM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_9474.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> On October 20th, ICANN and Verisign renewed the agreement under which Verisign will continue to act as Root Zone Maintainer for the Domain Name System (DNS) for another 8-year term. The Root Zone sits atop the hierarchical architecture of the DNS and is essential to virtually all internet navigation, acting as the dynamic, cryptographically secure, global directory of all top-level domains that exist in the DNS. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9474" class="blue">Pat Kane</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 5,669</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/20240909-multistakeholder-approach-icann-communitys-role-in-global-internet">Navigating the Multistakeholder Approach: The ICANN Community’s Role in Global Internet Governance</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Sep 09, 2024 8:16 AM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_9353.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> In a world where the internet is central to communication, innovation, and economic growth, governing this vast digital ecosystem is a complex challenge.
