ICANN DNS Symposium | November 2022
The fifth ICANN DNS Symposium (IDS 2022) will be held 15-16 November 2022 in Brussels, Belgium. IDS 2022 will be held immediately before the IANA Community Day on 17 November.
The theme for IDS 2022 is "Examining the effects of both centralization and diversification in the DNS."
The devices of more than 20% of Internet users are configured to use public Domain Name System (DNS) resolvers, according to some studies. A small set of registry service providers are responsible for a large set of top-level domains (TLDs). An attack against a single service provider's infrastructure can affect a large percentage of Internet users. At the same time, there are more public resolver services and more TLDs than ever. This prompts the question, "Is the DNS overly centralized or adequately diversified?" ICANN invites speakers to present topics on centralization and diversification in the DNS. Presentations could include measurements and fact-based predictions, and discussions about risk mitigation and scalability in relation to either greater or lesser centralization, greater or lesser diversity, or both.
Adjacent to the ICANN DNS Symposium, IANA will be holding a half-day workshop focused on key technical evolution projects within IANA relating to the DNS. Topics will include a discussion of how to perform a DNSSEC algorithm rollover for the DNS root zone, and reviewing and updating the TLD technical requirements for root zone changes. TLD managers, DNS experts, and other interested parties are encouraged to attend.
