Call for Participation -- ICANN DNSSEC and Security Workshop for ICANN74  
Policy Forum

In cooperation with the ICANN Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC), 
we are planning a DNSSEC and Security Workshop for the ICANN74 Public Forum 
being held as a hybrid meeting  from 13-16 June 2022 in the Central European 
Time Zone (UTC +1). This workshop date will be determined once ICANN creates a 
block schedule for us to follow; then we will be able to request a day and 
time. The DNSSEC and Security Workshop has been a part of ICANN meetings for 
several years and has provided a forum for both experienced and new people to 
meet, present and discuss current and future DNSSEC deployments.  For 
reference, the most recent session was held at the ICANN73 Community Forum on 
Wednesday 09 March 2022. The presentations and transcripts are available at 
https://73.schedule.icann.org/meetings/qGWqRxCjbWHqdGLxN,
https://73.schedule.icann.org/meetings/pm4Zz3yN3CgjoTXp2 and 
https://73.schedule.icann.org/meetings/qiGweLr2MS7zJwy8o.

The DNSSEC Workshop Program Committee is developing a program for the upcoming 
meeting.  Proposals will be considered for the following topic areas and 
included if space permits.  In addition, we welcome suggestions for additional 
topics either for inclusion in the ICANN74 workshop, or for consideration for 
future workshops.

1.  Global DNSSEC Activities Panel
For this panel, we are seeking participation from those who have been involved 
in DNSSEC deployment as well as from those who have not deployed DNSSEC but who 
have a keen interest in the challenges and benefits of deployment, including 
Root Key Signing Key (KSK) Rollover activities and plans.

2.  DNSSEC Best Practice
Now that DNSSEC has become an operational norm for many registries, registrars, 
and ISPs, what have we learned about how we manage DNSSEC?


  *   Do you still submit/accept DS records with Digest Type 1?
  *   What is the best practice around key rollovers?
  *   What about Algorithm rollovers?
  *   Do you use and support DNSKEY Algorithms 13-16?
  *   How often do you review your disaster recovery procedures?
  *   Is there operational familiarity within your customer support teams?
  *   What operational statistics have been gathered about DNSSEC?
  *   Are there experiences being documented in the form of best practices, or 
something similar, for transfer of signed zones?

Activities and issues related to DNSSEC in the DNS Root Zone are also desired.

3. DNSSEC Deployment Challenges
The program committee is seeking input from those that are interested in 
implementation of DNSSEC but have general or particular concerns with DNSSEC.  
In particular, we are seeking input from individuals that would be willing to 
participate in a panel that would discuss questions of the following nature:


  *   Are there any policies directly or indirectly impeding your DNSSEC 
deployment? (RRR model, CDS/CDNSKEY automation)
  *   What are your most significant concerns with DNSSEC, e.g., complexity, 
training, implementation, operation or something else?
  *   What do you expect DNSSEC to do for you and what doesn't it do?
  *   What do you see as the most important trade-offs with respect to doing or 
not doing DNSSEC?

4. Security Panel
The program committee is looking for presentations on DNS, DNSSEC, routing and 
other topics that could impact the security and/or stability of the Internet.

We are looking for presentations that cover implementation issues, challenges, 
opportunities and best practices for:


  *   Emerging threats that could impact the security and/or stability of the 
Internet
  *   DoH and DoT
  *   RPKI (Resource Public Key Infrastructure)
  *   BGP routing & secure implementations
  *   MANRS ( Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security)
  *   Browser security – DNS, DNSSEC, DoH
  *   EMAIL & DNS related security – DMARC, DKIM, TLSA, etc…

If you are interested in participating, please send a brief (1-3 sentence) 
description of your proposed presentation to 
dnssec-security-works...@icann.org<mailto:dnssec-security-works...@icann.org> 
by COB Friday, 29 April  2022.

Thank you,
Kathy and Andrew
