Hello nsd and Unbound users, Did you know that there is significant momentum building to regulate software, including open source, in at least Europe and the US (and possibly elsewhere as well), in order to improve cybersecurity? Do you think this regulation will improve cybersecurity for your operations of nsd or Unbound? What are the opportunities and pitfalls you can envision?
Please help my work at NLnet Labs informing sensible policy by contributing a response to an anonymous survey: https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/SSAC-open-source-software-in-DNS-and-registration-infrastructure Regulators and policy makers don’t understand the scope and scale of FOSS in Internet Infrastructure. Your input will help my work in ICANN's Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) [1] to document these in a report, which will be published on the ICANN website [2], with a target publication date in June. I would appreciate if you contribute a moment of your time to capture what you think. The survey will be closed for new submissions at the end of February anywhere on earth. Thank you. kind regards, Maarten [1] https://www.icann.org/en/ssac [2] https://www.icann.org/en/ssac/publications # What is SSAC? The Security and Stability Advisory Committee advises the ICANN community and ICANN Board on security and integrity matters related to Internet naming and address systems. We perform ongoing threat assessment and risk analysis to assess principal threats to stability and security of these systems. SSAC publications are available from https://www.icann.org/en/ssac/publications # What software are you looking at? Our focus is on recursive & authoritative nameservers, RDAP/WHOIS, EPP/registry and escrow functions. # Anonymous? We use the European Commission's EUsurvey tool, configured not to log IP addresses or other information with the potential to identify you. Your (anonymous) comments may be reprinted as entered in the report, if there is personally identifying information / personal data included in your comments, we will edit that from your remarks. -- Maarten Aertsen senior internet technologist, NLnet Labs _______________________________________________ nsd-users mailing list nsd-users@lists.nlnetlabs.nl https://lists.nlnetlabs.nl/mailman/listinfo/nsd-users
