Purpose

Since 2022, when the ccNSO DNS Abuse Standing Committee (DASC) was established, it has served as a forum for ccTLD managers to exchange information, share insights and discuss practices to mitigate DNS abuse. The role of the committee is to raise awareness, promote dialogue and showcase practices, not to develop or promote policy.

DASC library | The DASC has created a library to share DNS Abuse-relevant information. The DNS abuse library includes links to tools, articles, reports and more. You can do both searches and suggestions for content in the library. We invite you to have a look.

DNS Abuse Discussion List | The Committee has also launched a DNS abuse discussion email list, open to all persons associated with a ccTLD with an interest in DNS abuse. The list will be used to regularly inform you about new additions to the library, discussions, and relevant upcoming events for ccTLDs.
