This webinar will cover the fundamentals of what DNSSEC is, why it is important, and will give an overview of all its technical components.

ICANN’s Office of the CTO offers the course that will cover the best practices in securing the overall ecosystem of DNS, from the threats to mitigation perspective.

The RIPE community carries out much of its work through mailing lists, but face-to-face meetings are equally important. The RIPE NCC facilitates a range of meetings for different audiences.

ICANN’s Office of the CTO offers the course, “DNS for ISPs”, a fast-paced, intense two-hour webinar covering myriad topics of DNS configuration and DNS security and monitoring intended for network engineers who are operating a service provider network. Topics include the benefits and challenges of operating open vs. closed DNS resolvers, best practices for operating a DNSSEC-validating resolver, discussions of encrypted DNS protocols like DNS-over-HTTPS and DNS-over-TLS, introducing the concept of running your own local copy of the root zone, reverse DNS considerations, and a discussion about the confluence of routing security (RPKI) with DNS operations.

CloudFest returns on an all-digital platform amid a global pandemic as we take stock of the strengths, weaknesses, risks, and opportunities that are revealed by a globe-spanning threat like COVID-19. The internet has delivered when it was needed most, just as its architects predicted—now let’s take it to the next level.

In recent months, governments’ technical capabilities to search mobile devices has come under greater scrutiny. Newly published research from academics and organizations like Upturn have cast new light on how governments may be gaining access to mobile devices and its consequences. The American Civil Liberties Union has also launched a lawsuit against the FBI, demanding they disclose records of its “technological capabilities for retrieving information from locked electronic devices.” At the same time, across the Atlantic, Europol has seemed to pour resources into government hacking with the launch of its new “Decryption Platform.” In this virtual panel hosted by the Global Encryption Coalition, experts from academia and civil society will discuss recent revelations around government hacking, its consequences for security and privacy, and its influence on the debate around end-to-end encryption.
