18 September 2017 - At ION Malta, Adam Peake discusses the IANA transition:
The IANA transition was successfully completed in October 2016 creating strengthened relationships between the IETF (Internet protocols and standards), Regional Internet Registries RIRs (IP addresses), and ccTLD and gTLD operators and TLD community and ICANN. A new organisation, Public Technical Identifiers (PTI), an affiliate of ICANN, is now responsible for performing the IANA functions and delivering the IANA Services on behalf of ICANN. The session will discuss these new arrangements and how they have enhanced ICANN’s accountability and transparency to the global Internet community. The session will also describe how ICANN is preparing for the Root KSK Rollover.
The Internet itself is a globally distributed computer network comprised of many voluntarily interconnected autonomous networks. Similarly, its governance is conducted by a decentralized and international multistakeholder network of interconnected autonomous groups drawing from civil society, the private sector, governments, the academic and research communities, and national and international organizations. They work cooperatively from their respective roles to create shared policies and standards that maintain the Internet’s global interoperability for the public good.

ION Cape Town, 8 September 2015 - Andrei Robachevsky discusses the Routing Resilience Manifesto initiative, underpinned by the “Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS)” document that includes a set of actionable recommendations, which aims to help network operators around the world work together to improve the security and resilience of the global routing system. In this session, we’ll explain the basic principles outlined in MANRS, how to sign up and support the effort, and how to get involved in helping to further increase global routing security.
ION Trinidad and Tobago, 5 February 2015 - Chris Grundemann from the Internet Society Deploy360 Programme explains the programme, its goals, other projects of the team, and the ION Conferences, while welcoming participants to Port of Spain.
ION Cape Town, 8 September 2015: The Internet Society is working toward fostering a larger and more engaged network operator community around the IETF and protocol development work. Part of that work was a survey of network operators in 2014 and an Internet-Draft about its results. We’re also interested specifically in bringing more African engineers with operational experience into the IETF, and perhaps even bringing a physical IETF meeting to the continent of Africa within the next few years. We’ll outline some of our recent work and hope to make this an interactive session to learn from the local community how to encourage more IETF participation.
To reach another person on the Internet you have to type an address into your computer - a name or a number. That address has to be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN coordinates these unique identifiers across the world. Without that coordination we wouldn't have one global Internet. Why is ICANN important? What is its mission?

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks
2. What is ICANN?
• Global multi-stakeholder organization that coordinates
the Internet’s system of unique identifiers – domain
names, IP addresses and Internet Protocols – enabling a
single, interoperable Internet.

24. Background: RIRs, NRO and the ASO
• What is an RIR?
− Regional Internet Registry. There
are five RIRs; AfriNIC, APNIC,
ARIN, LACNIC and RIPE and they
cooperate thru the NRO, the
Number Resource Organization.
• What is the ASO?
− The Address Supporting
Organization, set up through an
MoU between ICANN and the NRO.
− One major task of the ASO is to
handle Global Policy Proposals.
27. Background: Global Policies
• What is a “Global Policy”?
– The RIRs develop many regional
addressing policies.
– Only very few policies affect IANA
and only those are called “Global
Policies”.
• Recent Global Policy Proposal:
- Recovered IPv4 Address Space,
”Post Exhaustion”

35. SSAC Activity Report
March 2012
What is the SSAC?
The Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) advises the ICANN community and Board of Directors on
matters relating to the security and integrity of the Internet's naming and address allocation systems. This includes
operational matters (e.g., matters pertaining to the correct and reliable operation of the root name system),
administrative matters (e.g., matters pertaining to address allocation and Internet number assignment), and
registration matters (e.g., matters pertaining to registry and registrar services). The SSAC engages in ongoing threat
assessment and risk analysis of the Internet naming and address allocation services to assess where the principal
threats to stability and security lie, and advises the ICANN community accordingly. See the SSAC Charter for
additional information.
Introduction
This Activity Report is divided into the following sections: Work Plan for 2012 and Work Completed in 2012.
The first section, Work Plan for 2012, presents the ideas and preliminary work to develop specific project plans.
This is perhaps the most important section of this report because it provides notice of issues on the horizon. The
Work Plan may include activities that have been carried over from the previous year.
The SSAC generates three types of work products: reports, advisories and comments. Reports examine a topic in
substantial detail. Advisories are issued in response to a problem or incident in a timely manner. Comments are
usually responses to queries from staff or to ICANN documents posted for formal response. SSAC reports,
advisories and comments are generally available for distribution to the community. Those work products that were
produced in 2012 are described in the Work Completed in 2012 section. For a list of SSAC documents see:
http://www.icann.org/en/groups/ssac/documents. For previous Work Plans and Activities see:
http://www.icann.org/en/groups/ssac/workplan-activities.
The SSAC often considers security incidents or matters disclosed in confidence to committee members (e.g., a
security vulnerability, an emerging threat to the Domain Name System (DNS), or information relating to a security
incident). Discussions and ongoing work within the SSAC are thus typically conducted in private until complete, or
until the need for confidentiality has lapsed. For information on the operation of the SSAC, see the SSAC
Operational Procedures. SSAC members participate in an individual capacity and do not represent the organizations

SSAC Activity Report
March 2012
What is the SSAC?
The Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) advises the ICANN community and Board of Directors on
matters relating to the security and integrity of the Internet's naming and address allocation systems. This includes
operational matters (e.g., matters pertaining to the correct and reliable operation of the root name system),
administrative matters (e.g., matters pertaining to address allocation and Internet number assignment), and
registration matters (e.g., matters pertaining to registry and registrar services). The SSAC engages in ongoing threat
assessment and risk analysis of the Internet naming and address allocation services to assess where the principal
threats to stability and security lie, and advises the ICANN community accordingly. See the SSAC Charter for
additional information.
