The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) invites the community to join a public webinar on 20 July 2021 at 16:00 UTC to learn more about the important deliberations happening within the United Nations (UN) and European Union (EU) on cybersecurity issues.

About ICANN

ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device. That address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a nonprofit public benefit corporation with a community of participants from all over the world.
