Dear all,
    
   Thank you for your suggestions and feedback. We received the
following suggestions:


  *  Building the capacity of end users to curb DNS abuse in Africa
(suggested by Barrack Otieno).
  *  Core priority areas to focus on within the African ICANN
Strategy (Poncelet Ileleji)
  *  ICANN engagement from grassroots level in Africa (Lillian

Kamara)

  *  Connecting the unconnected for digital Africa (Abdalmonem

Galila)

  *  African priority areas within the ICANN Strategic Plan
(Abdulkarim Oloyede)
  *  How the ICANN multistakholder model works: end-user view
(Olivier Kouami)

   Based on discussions on the list, I believe "DNS Abuse" received the
most support. There were variations of suggestions for the topic, which
I believe the team will decide.
    
   If you are interested in joining the statement drafting team, kindly
send me an email (off list) and keep st...@atlarge.icann.org in copy.
    
   Thank you,

Good points Mark and El,    
   I think the end user has been missing in the DNS Security
conversation yet they are actually the ones who speak with their
pockets, if i may use a Kenyan Proverb. An enlightened end user is an
empowered end user. As we bring the next billion users online cases of
DNS abuse will definately increase. If governments feel that industry
players have not control they will definately step in and thats what
we are avoiding.

Gabdibé,

drafting a resolution (beforehand), or even debating a resolution, is
going to achieve absolutely nothing.

Mark,

50% lookups is actually almost worth than zero :-)-).

        And how many of those hit infrastructure actually in South
Africa?
        Does the figure include the public ones from Google and
Cloudflare?

        My view is that this only works All-or-Nothing, because
noncompliant
        commercial resolver operators have a commercial advantage

over

        complaint ones.

Financial incentives may work as may financial or other sanctions.

        One could even make it part of the Accreditation that

DNSSEC

must be
        offered by the Registrars.

        But while the Registrars are usually the entities

operating

the DNS
        and as such have control over the end-user's DNS anyway,

the

chain
        of trust should go up to the end user and not just the
Registrar.

        Talking to the banks has so far not been very effective,

they

are
        happy with HTTPS even though they forget to renew their
certificate
        on a regular basis, never mind the expense.

I don't have the answer either.

If anyone has a technical "solution" or project going on, and is

coming

to Cancun, please feel free to propose a presentation at TechDay on

the

Monday.

greetings, el

I also like the sound of Barrack's proposal.  What exactly does "DNS
Abuse" mean though?

If it is to try and get all important Domains DNSSEC Signed and for
all DNS Resolvers to become DNSSEC aware - that would be a winner in
my book!

Incidentally - about 50% of all DNS lookups in South Africa are

DNSSEC

aware.  That's actually the easy bit.  Just have the Internet
Connection suppliers enable DNSSEC on their resolvers.

Getting the bulk or at least the important Domains DNSSEC Signed will
be a bit more challenging but is quite possible; e.g. any domain for

a

website which may involve a financial transaction or deal with
personal information.

On my Domain Registration and Hosting Platform, if I am running the
Registrants DNS (Zone file), DNSSEC is simply an option the

Registrant

can switch on.  I could change that and simply enable it for

everyone.

However, if the Domain is then moved to a Registrar that does not
support DNSSEC - there would be issues for the new Registrar.
