ICANN Seeks Input: Draft Report of the Root Zone DNSSEC Algorithm Rollover Study

19 October 2023

Today, Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) opened a new Public Comment proceeding.

The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) convened a team in January 2022 to study the requirements for changing the cryptographic algorithm used for signing the DNS root zone. The resulting framework is intended to ensure that ICANN, the ICANN community, and ICANN's global partners are technically and operationally prepared for a future change in the root zone's signing algorithm. This proceeding seeks input on the draft report and recommendations of the design team to inform their final report.

For more information and to participate in this proceeding, please visit this webpage.

About ICANN

ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device. That address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a nonprofit public benefit corporation with a community of participants from all over the world.
