Session Details
The ALAC and At-Large community continue to believe that more can be done to combat DNS abuse on a number of fronts. Apart from strengthening the ICANN organization’s ability to take action against errant ICANN Contracted Parties that fail to carry out their contractual obligations in mitigating DNS Abuse, the ALAC intends to explore ways to more effectively mitigate harm emanating from maliciously registered domain names before such harm can be inflicted on Internet end-users. To this end, beginning with ICANN83, the ALAC will convene a series of collaborative conversations involving the ICANN community, to support stronger understanding of continuing widespread DNS abuse cases for better scoping and identification of possible solutions for the same. This session aims to collaboratively:Review more recent initiatives targeted at mitigating DNS Abuse Identify and scope types of DNS abuse perpetrated using maliciously registered domain names which continue to occur rampantlyExplore feasible mitigation solutions and possible paths to secure such solutionsAgenda: https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/bABSD
